One World One Heart Giveaway

2/16/10- Prizes have been sent. Happy Gardening!

2/15/10- I have selected the winners. Congrats! It has been so much fun meeting everyone. I sure enjoyed the magic carpet ride!

1/26/10 update: for every 100 entries, I will be adding another prize.

Gift # 1: One year subscription to the Heirloom Gardener Magazine (added January 25). Won by Judy

Gift # 2: One 15 gallon fabric "Smart Pot". Perfect for growing potatoes above ground even if you have little space (added January 27). Won by Theresa

Gift # 3: A single sample copy of Heirloom Gardener Magazine (Added February 3). Won by Crystal



I enjoy chatting with gardeners around the world and learning more about them and what they grow. Garden blogging is a great way to bring people together who might not ordinarily meet. That fits well with the goals of The One World One Heart event which seeks to bring bloggers together. It is a great chance to meet people and the giveaways are an added bonus.

So on to my giveaway in this event: The Heirloom Gardener magazine is a virtual magic carpet ride around the world. It features articles on an intriguing international collection of seeds and plants. So it seems like a good gift to share with one lucky winner in my little corner of the One World One Heart event and this year's Magic Carpet theme. I find each issue of this magazine to be an adventure and would love to give a one year (4 issue) subscription to one person anywhere in the world (I don't have any ties to this magazine, I just enjoy reading it!). The winner will be selected at random on February 14 at midnight and announced on February 15, 2010.

All you need to do is comment below and include a link or e-mail address so I can contact the winner. It would be fun if you write something about your gardening experiences in your comment but it is not required. The Heirloom Gardener is a fun read whether you have never gardened or if you are a pro. Grow some unique flowers, herbs or vegetables and have your own adventure.

My blog is about my book (non - garden) and dogs. But stop by and say hello. I am number 1047. I'll be doing more garden stuff on my blog soon. I am going to follow yours, have a link to do same on mine if you like. Very excited. Barbara

Chris, this is one of my fave blogs to come across on this magic journey. I have 2 acres (part of a friend's 40) in NE Arizona. My friend uses heirloom seeds and plants and any of your gifts would be so welcome to our planting. I love the "tater pot". Very practical gifting for those of us who can certainly use it! I lived in Northern MN for 15 winters, how do you survive the cold in WI!?!? I know, lots of longies. Tina

Hi - what a great giveaway. I love gardening. The last few years have been dedicated to flowers with a small kitchen garden. This year we are incorporating a much larger veggie and herb garden. Cannot wait for spring and this is perfect.

I have a backyard 3 stories down. I used to garden there but keep looking at it thinking it is time to get it back up and running. Now it is filled with a few little building holding tools, a deck and dogs. Hmmmmm what to do? I would love to win the magazine and maybe I will get some inspiration and move forward. A really good thing.
