Snow Fun?

Well it's the first real snow we have seen for a long while (Thursday 5th February 2009). Some brave team members braved the snow and walked to work across the fields. With the lack of custom we thought we should make the best of it and build a snowman - a big one. It would have been bigger but lifting the balls of snow proved more difficult than we first thought!

A few brave customers turned out mostly to buy bird food and feeders for the poor birds which need to build up their fat reserves. With National Nest Box week coming up soon (14th February) they need all the help they can get during these cold spells.

Let's Grow Your Own

The new year has begun and it's time to start thinking about growing your own. There's no better time to think about what you can acheive growing edible produce in your own outside space. There are so many new products to make this a breeze and it can look good too. Aside from Seed Potatoes, Onion sets, Garlic, Mushrooms, Vegetable seeds and plants - here at Podington we have brought together all the equipment you need too.


It's so easy to build your own raised bed for the patio. But if that's too much DIY we have purpose built designs just for you. Take a look at Burgon & Balls 'Home Allotment' range and you will see how growing your own can look good too. There's also great growhouse, greenhouses, cloches an coldframes to protect your produce and get a headstart. Don't forget seed trays, plugs and pots too. So let's save money and grow our own for 2009 and beyond. It's great fun, healthy and looks good too.
