The first contest is about your favourite outdoor plant. It can be a tree, a flower, a shrub or even a vegetable but you must explain why you love it in 150 to 200 words. The winner will receive a copy of Suzy Bales' "The Down To Earth Gardener" - a 200-page book by one of my favourite garden writers. And the clincher is that author Suzy Bales will be judging your entries and selecting the winner herself!
About the Book:
Please submit your entries to dreamboat7@hotmail.com with the subject line: Martha Moments Contest. All of the entries I receive will be posted on the Martha Moments Contests page for others (and Suzy) to see. The winner of the contest will receive the book with free shipping. (Note: Entrants outside the U.S. and Canada are welcome, but if a winner from outside North America is chosen, a shipping fee will be charged. Please consider this before you enter.) The contest closes April 30th and the winner will be announced on May 5th. Good luck!
