Nominations for seeds - please vote for a good cause
Thank you Zaz for all the time, effort and money you've put into this seed distribution. There are going to be 4 very lucky charities out there and I hope all the seeds come up waving a flag with your name on!

Ok - all 4 parcels packed and letters printed and tucked in the top - still waiting for 1 address and just realised that I have run out of sellotape. So - as I'm off to the rellies tomorrow I'll get some and get them sent on Monday. I've put the following in the letter...
Congratulations - you won some seeds!
You were nominated by a member of the Grapevine Forum, a forum run by Grow Your Own magazine. Members of the forum voted on different projects to receive excess seeds and you have won.
Please feel free to report back if these were any good to you - I'm sure the people who originally donated them to our seed swap parcel, and those who nominated and voted for you would love to hear what you did with them.
Kind Regards, for and on behalf of the Grapevine contributors,

So, apart from a little sticking and posting - and the matter of one more address - I consider this experiment in polling people about charities to receive seeds - well and truly closed!
Zaz, sorry for the delay, but have pm'd you the details for Mudlarks and I would also like to say on behalf of Vic at Mudlarks a big thank you to Zaz for arranging this and another big thank you to all who voted for them. it is a good cause and they have a lovely website just google mudlarks hertford and you will find it.
Ok - all 4 were posted and I took one back out, counted the packets [63 in this one and they would all have had around about the same number] and took a photo for you all.
Just to say - I mainly concentrated on things with >4 packet of each with a few quirky things as well that we had more than 4 packs of. So there should be enough there to keep everyone happy!
I had an e-mail from the gardener at the Mencap Gardens, Stackpole to say thank you to everyone who voted for them to receive seeds following my nomination. Nice to know they are appreciated.

PS. I just don't have enough time to say hello to everyone as they join so please take this as a delighted to see you here!
