Only one application for a free seed pack is available per household.

Countryfile is working with Kew’s Grow Wild campaign to give away 230,000 packets of wild flower seeds. There’s been a dramatic decline in the number of wild flowers in the UK over the last century and Kew’s campaign aims to make everyone aware of their importance to wildlife and the human food chain. The packs are full of seeds for native wild flowers, and there are different versions for Scotland, Ireland and England & Wales. This week, on the programme, Ellie gets a sneak preview of the packs and shows you how to plant them in your own garden – or even in an old pair of wellies.

    I have pathways near my house with overgrown grassy banks - would look so much better with a few wildflowers, so intend to spread the seeds here.
    Entering a few comps here and there 2020 seems my best year for wins so far:- iphone xs, limited edition whiskey, Masha and the Bear toys, newborn baby stuff, 3 x books, 12 months membership to diet app, bottle of syrup, Baby Shark singing puppet, children’s book, Nasty vegan shake x 2 packs.
