Incredible Edible MiniGarden Giveaway events - Harvest News

During July the Harvest team visited 9 Exeter neighbourhoods, distributing starter kits for people to set up their own Incredible Edible MiniGardens. The giveaway events were a big success, with 118 people having received containers, compost, seeds and seedlings to get growing. The kits were completely free to people who met certain criteria (eg living in one of our target areas, not having a garden, being on a low income).

Don’t forget, if you have a MiniGarden we’d like to know how you're getting on, so we’re inviting all minigardeners to take photos of their containers and send them to us. We’ll display all the photos at the Produce Swap and Launch Party on September 25th, and there will be prizes for the best ones. Send your photos to andit@eci.org.uk or by post: Harvest, Exeter Community Initiatives, 14 York Road, Exeter EX4 6BA.

The MiniGarden giveaways are now finished for 2010, but we’ll be distributing more kits next spring – let us know if you’d like to be involved.
