Want to win a box of seedlings? Head over to my other website, Sweet Living, for your chance to win.

Awapuni Nurseries are giving 2 lucky readers (in New Zealand) the chance to win six seedling bundles (a mix of herbs, vegetables and flowers  – more than 40 seedlings). It’s such a great prize.

I really like Awapuni Nurseries’ concept. All their seedlings are packaged in either recycled newspaper or biodegradable pots. You’ll find them in supermarkets and Bunnings nationwide, or you can easily order online (see their website here).
