Weekends work:

Just checked the spuds I planted early and they survived! Before you say it's not a heavy frost, I only just ventured out.  

This has become a bit of a tradition. Having three kids in Melbourne I understand (a bit) what it's like. So for the duration of the lockdown if you live in Victoria use code 3606 to get free freight on any garden and as many as you like. Don't forget, offer ends when lockdown ends-hopefully soon!!

  There's still time to get a Watersaver Garden before Christmas if you order by Monday December 6. Very likely but no guarantees, we are all at the mercy of the freight companies.

Simply put your order in anytime before Christmas, pay the freight at the check out, and receive the cash back enclosed in your order. Merry Xmas! From Alan and the team.
