Challenge Instructions

Grow flowers, spices, herbs, fruits and vegetables. We’ll provide the seeds (flower and vegetable), you do the good deeds.  But here’s the catch. You won’t know what you’re planting from our seeds. Yes 😊 “Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you’re going to get.” To adhere and comply with social distancing rules, we will mail you the seeds or in some cases deliver personally to you front door (no contact front door drop off only). In the subsequent weeks, tell us how your plants and gardens are coming along and share pictures of your newly grown plants with us and with your community.  Our planting experts (judges) will pick the three finalists from the best gardeners for a first, second and third prize. Make it a family affair.

Bonus Challenge

Can you find anything in your parents’ kitchen that you can grow? 🤔 We believe you can.
