Chance for children to
enter spudtacular model competition
CHILDREN from Southport are being
invited by a virtual garden centre to enter a potato modelling competition
over March, 2016.
PotterandRest.Co.UK are asking youngsters to create a
potato model for the chance to win a £25 voucher to spend on the site.
Peter Burks, Horticultural Expert on the site said:- "To celebrate the
humble spud we thought it would be a great idea to get children creating
their own models out of the vegetable. The potatoes can be modelled into absolutely anything the children wish,
whether it's famous faces or animals, the more creative the better! We are
then asking them to snap a photo of themselves with their potato model and
send it in to us via:-
hello@potterandrest.co.uk and we'll
share all the entries on our social media pages."
The deadline for entries to be submitted is Friday, 29 April 2016 and after this
date we will choose a national winner and five regional winners. The
national winner will win a £25 voucher and the regional winners will each
receive £10 vouchers.
Peter added:- "It would be great to see models made from potatoes that
children have grown in their garden too. We sell a range of seed potatoes,
including individual ones, if any youngsters would like to give growing
their own a go."
The firm aims to be the largest 'true' garden
centre online with free expert advice available to gardeners via telephone
and social media backed by a 5 year plant guarantee.
There is an emphasis on British grown plants and products wherever possible
and some of the products and plant collections are not currently available
in other garden centres in the real or virtual world.
The e-garden centre hopes to appeal to all levels of gardeners from complete
novices to keen amateurs and on to expert gardeners.
