    • The container vegetable collection looks fabulous for this new to the Northwest beginning gardener!

    • The container vegetable collection would be perfect for our household. My husband was just diagnosed with Diabetes and the Dr. says that lots of fresh veggies are in order, and they can be so pricey at the grocery store. Would love to be able to grow our own. 🙂

    • Mari @Food Not Lawns, Cleveland here. We are launcbing a seed library here and wold be happy with anything, but will also have containers out front, so the CONTAINER COLLECTION would be awesome! By the way, we are entirely volunteer and live by kindness, participation and donation!
      Thank you.

  3. Ohohohoh! My fave seed company ever! I’d love the baby veggie collection, and I know right where I’d put them. 🙂

  24. I think it would be amazing to win the Container Vegetable Collection. This sounds yummy and I will be further along in my pregnancy and all the veggies I can get would be awesome!

  25. So hard to choose! We are new to VA an I want to grow everything and have much work to do. Maybe those babies? Cause it takes a lot of baby steps to get to be a gardener like you.:)

  28. They all look amazing! I would appreciate them all if I win, although I do have a preference for the Container Vegetable Collection.

  41. Woot woot! Sign me up for the Baby Veggie bundle! My tots would have so much fun picking and pulling tese!

  46. Ooh! Baby Veggies for me please! Looks awesome!! Thanks for all your inspiring gardening content, Mavis! I am excited for my growing season.

  48. Baby vegetable collection for my vegetarian, vegetable loving 2 year old baby girl! She is now old enough to help me in the garden so this summer will be a special one.

  51. The container garden would be awesome!! My daughters garden partly in their very own raised beds, so these plants would be wonderful!!! And thank you for another great giveaway opportunity! 🙂

  53. I would be very interested in the Baby Vegetable Seed Collection. It just seems like a cool set of vegetables!

  56. Last year was my first year really being able to grow root vegetables (they never seemed to work for me before) so I would love to be able to do it again with the Root Collection.

  57. Ooh that’s a hard one! I think I would have to go with the container vegetable collection. All my favorites 🙂

  61. We would love the container collection package; we have a container setup in our motorhome that is the envy of our neighbors … We stay in one campground for weeks at a time and set the crates with containers out in the sunny weather to prosper.

  67. Container Vegetable Collection would be wonderful! I had plans for a small container style garden around a bench!

  69. Container vegetable please! And I will be giving them away as I am in the uk. They will go to my friend Jessica Lindsay in Bellingham as she will make good use of them. 🙂

  80. I would love to win the Baby Vegetable Seed Collection. What a fun mix of veggies! I have special plans for a baby round zucinni filled with scrumptious Maine seafood stuffing!!

  84. I would like the container vegetable collection. I took old wooden raisin sweat boxes, place legs on them,no stoop gardening, along with drip tape, it makes a real veggie producer. Had a little rain, need more here, near Kerman,CA
    Thank you.

  89. I would love to win the container vegetable collection! Can’t wait until it is warm enough to get my hands in the dirt!

  90. Hi Mavis!

    I would be so grateful to receive any of these as gifts but the Baby Vegetable Seed Collection would be my first choice. It has a little bit of everything and as they say, variety is the spice of the garden, or something like that 😉

    Thanks!!!

    PS: how do you always get such awesome ‘boyfriends’?!? 😀

  91. Container vegetable collection! Can’t wait to put what I learned from my failed container garden last year into practice this year! We will have success! Ha ha!

  92. What great collections! The vegetable container garden would be my first choice, but any of them would be fantastic! Thanks Mavis!

  100. I would love to win the container vegetable collection! We are apartment living for now, so space is definitely something to consider! 🙂

  101. They’re all amazing but I’d have to say the Baby Vegetable Garden collection for sure!!! It has a little bit of everything and is not quite so intimidating for the 1st time gardener as the others are. It would also be a great way to help my baby boy (4 yo) start to get into gardening as well and embracing the veggies since he’ll have helped grow and then later pick them. 🙂

  102. The root renaissance sounds really good, but then again I am not that picky so any would do just fine! We have started a new garden area so I am looking forward to it!

  105. Wow Mavis, the Container Gardening Collection looks like so much fun. I myself have 6 gardens. However, last October my Dad had a major stroke and he stays with me 19 days a month. So, I have decided container gardening on my deck would be good rehab for him:-) Thank you for the chance to win!

  106. Root Renaissance Collection – I started experimenting last fall with growing root vegetables, this seed collection would help in my diabolical scheme to rule the world both above and below the soil! 🙂

  113. I’m going to go with the Container Vegetable Collection because I’m almost ready for that. The soil needs lots of work before I can even think about planting in the garden bed.

  129. The baby collection would be wonderful for our baby garden but quite frankly I would be delighted with any of them.
    Free seeds are wonderful especially when they are good ones

  133. My two young kids and I love love love root vegetables! Would absolutely love to win the Renaissance collection. Thank you for the chance Mavis!

  136. well, it’s below zero here in northern MN, but I can still DREAM about my garden, right? I’d nab the “Container Vege” collection if given the opportunity 🙂

  141. Container Vegetable Collection. Starting a garden for my 80 year old mother. That’s all she wanted for Christmas.

  150. The container collection please! It would totally make my year as I have limited space, being in apartment.

  151. That root collection looks fantastic. I’ve been hoping to plant more root vegetables to try my hand at preserving them in the root cellar next year!

  156. Thank you for the chance. This is my first time doing this. Root Renaissance please. I love all of the knowledge that you share.

  160. The container vegetable garden collection looks awesome. I don’t have a lot of space in my yard for a garden, and am looking to add in a “cook’s garden” this summer. I love salads fresh from the garden, and there is nothing like a fresh cuke. Plus, would like to make some homemade vegetable spaghetti sauce this year, and this collection looks like it has a lot of what I would need!

  163. Any would be fantastic, but I think my kids would get the biggest kick out of the Baby Vegetables collection.

  172. I would love to win the Baby Vegetable collection. My son is a lover of our garden green beans, but maybe the cuteness of baby veggies could encourage him to try some of our other garden crops, too?

    Thanks so much for hosting another giveaway!

  175. New raised beds this year! Would love to try the Container Veg Collection. Thanks for the opportunity!

  188. The container garden collection. I’ve got a big yard but not much in full sun so I’ve been experimenting with different, movable containers to chase the sun.

  201. Container vegetables please! I have always gardened in the ground but this year will be the first year I grow in containers. We are moving and I cant miss out on a growing season!

  203. Actually, a week or so ago when you listed your plans for your garden this year and had a link to the seeds you bought from them, I went and bought a bunch of seeds too. I am so excited to get them started. I live in AZ, so I really should have started them a month ago, but hopefully I can still get some good plants in. I am excited because they are all heirloom varieties and I am hoping I can do a little seed saving this year.

    But the baby blend has seeds I didn’t buy, so if I win, I would pick that one.
    Thanks!

  207. Ohhhhh definitely the Container Collection. This winter has been so rough and so long ~ I’ve literally been dreaming of being able to eat fresh greens that I grew! Thanks for the contest!

  209. I would love to win the baby vegetable seed collection for my little babies who are four and seven. We love to grow our own food!

  210. I would LOVE the root vegetable collection! Root veggies are the only thing I’m always sure I can grow. 🙂

  213. I definitely want the Container Vegetable Collection. The only way to ensure that the kids and the dogs don’t kill them is to not put them in the ground. I can move containers away from them!

  218. The Container Veggie Collection would be super-duper cool!!!! I love your giveaways, Mavis 🙂

  223. Definately the container collection for me, I have a small space I’d love to fill with veggies!!

  232. Just got home from lunch with friends and we were discussing our vegetable gardens. One friend had a picture of the perfect radish she harvested a few weeks ago. I told them how I ask for icing and pickle buckets from the grocery store for growing vegetables. I would love the Container Vegetable seeds to share with them.

  233. what great choices. Would put the Baby packet at top of wish list. Thanks for these great give-a-ways

  236. The Root Renaissance collection would be wonderful. I recently bought ROOTS the cookbook and would love to grow my own.

    Thanks for the offer!

  237. I have been on a wait list for a popular community garden in Santa Monica for the last 5 years. I was just contacted recently that a plot might be opening up to me! I have been dreaming of what seeds to plant in my garden. The Root Renaissance Collection would be a perfect addition to my first community garden. Please choose me!

  240. OOOOOOH! I love them all, but the container one would be wonderful! I used these seeds last year and had great luck with them. I love them!!! Thanks for the chance!

  241. I would love to win the Container Vegetable garden. My hubby and I built a new deck last year, so this year, the containers are going to get filled.
    Thank you for the opportunity to win this fun prize!

  243. I would luv to win the container or the baby vegetable collection…actually ANY of the seeds…lol…thank you Mavis for the giveaway opportunity!!!

  247. I would vote for the Root Renaissance Collection. I love roasted vegetables. I like to make a pan up in the beginning of the week and use them in omelettes and sandwiches.

  252. I would love to have the Container Vegetable collection. My tomatoes rocked last summer – now it’s time to branch out and try to grow something my family actually will eat! My co-workers loved the bumper crop of ‘maters….my family not so much.

  253. I’d love to get my hands on any of them, but if I have to pick it would be the baby veggie collection 🙂

  255. I am moving to a senior apartment complex and would absolutely love the container garden seed collection to start my new balcony garden!

  256. Roots! roots! roots! I cheer for roots! Not only can they overwinter in our wonderful northwestern winters (well, we did get 8 inches of snow this weekend, but that is not typical, as you know) but I can do so much with them!!!! ROOOOOOOTTTTTSSSSS!

  263. I am interested in the Container Vegetable Collection. Oh how much I could grow in containers on my balcony. Thank you for having this giveaway of seeds. Hope I win.

  266. Hard to choose between them all 🙂 They all look so lovely.

    I would love to win the Root Renaissance Seed Collection.

    The name in itself is pretty darn spiffy!

  270. I would love to try the Container Garden Collection!

    Thanks so much for the chance to win 🙂

  275. All of those collections are wonderful, but if I had to chose one it would be the Vegetable Container Collection. Thank you so much for sharing your goodies with us!

  281. I would love the Container Vegetable Collection. My husband and I are moving cross-country this summer, and I will have to give up my current garden and try container gardening for a year. This would be perfect!

  283. All of the collections sound lovely but I am most drawn to the Container Vegetable Garden. Space is always an issue for us, so this would be a great thing for us

  358. I would love to win any of the packages, but would especially like to get the container garden collection!

  393. The container vegetable garden! We tried a garden last year….. And successfully grew corn. That’s it 🙁 BUT we are going to try, try again!

  445. I would love the Container Vegetable Collection- thanks on-line boyfriend, Ryan! And you, too, Mavis.:)

  446. I am starting my last Grandchildren garden this year. I have 9 grandchildren and I have taught each if them vegetable gardening and composting EXCEPT for the two youngest who I will be working with in their backyard this year, to start their own vegetable garden. Once started, thir father will help the grandchildren since all of the fathers grew up vegetable gardening with me too. In the garden time is peaceful and full of love and wonder. Snooping for worm casting to know where to dig for worms, composting kitchen garden scraps and sifting composted soil to make new beds are all a part of my grandchildren’s garden lessons. I will never forget the joy on my granddaughter’s face when she proudly offered a bunch of just picked carrots to her mother (who was about to go out for an elegant evening). I would like the Baby Seed Collection to use in my last grandchildren’s garden.

  453. The root vegetables would be fun to try; thanks for the encouragement in the midst of winter doldrums!

  454. I would love Botanical Interests’ Container Vegetable Collection please. Everything sounds scrumptious! Come soon SPRING!!

  455. I would choose the container collection because I think it would do better in our garden. They all look wonderful!

  458. Wow! How cool is this? I’d love the container collection. We’ve gotten started down here in Florida 🙂

  459. I just got my catalog from Botanical seeds and I’m super pumped about ordering some seeds. The packages are so pretty – already planning what to do with the seed envelopes….but I digress – sorry – the CONTAINER COLLECTION would be great…as they all would!! HA!

  460. I just got the botanical seed catalog in the mail today, thanks to you mentioning it in one of your posts!! I hope to juice a TON of veggies this year. Literally, a TON. (Ok, not quite) That Container Vegetable collection looks fantastic! I would save the onions and the peppers for my husband to eat because who juices them?!

  464. Botanical Interests rocks! Container Collection would be great in my container garden. Thanks Mavis.

  465. It’s a hard choice, but if I had to pick one.. The root renaissance sounds the most interesting to me. Those purple carrots keep my attention!

  469. I would love the container collection! I have decided to do more deck gardening this year to foil the 6 deer that eat my plants!

  471. I would love the Root Renaissance Collection! I’ve not grown parsnips or beets yet. I would love to give them a try! Thanks so much for doing this giveaway!

  472. Roots renaissance collection for me. And we had snow falling today, so thoughts of spring and green growing things will keep the cabin fever from burning me up!

  475. I’d love the baby vegetable collection! all the things I want to can & eat this year in one collection! Thanks Mavis! you rock!

  476. Thank You ! I would like the container veg collection! I am using square foot gardening this year and these would do great! Thanks again 🙂

  477. I’d like to win the Container set, since I don’t have a bunch of room for gardening at the moment.

  478. Root Renaissance would be wonderful! This is my first year starting my garden from seed. I didn’t order beets because I was concerned I would not eat them all. However, I have recently started using a juicer to add more vegetables to my diet, and beets add so much color and a tasty, earthy flavor to the juices 🙂

  479. The root collection. I have never tried carrots and beets. They are in my plans for this year.
    Thanks. Mavis!!

  481. I would like to win the container veg collection because I would like to share them with my community gardeners who have smaller plots to garden in.

  482. I would love the container vegetable collection. Thanks Mavis! And thanks Botanical Seeds!!

  483. Evidently everyone loves Botanical’s seeds!! I would love the container or baby vegetable seeds! Either one or both 🙂 Bring on the veggies!!!

  489. I would be thrilled with any of them, but if I had to choose it would probably be the Root Renaissance Collection because I had wanted to try parsnips this year and forgot to order some. Botanical Interests seeds rock!

  490. Impossible to pick only one!
    I love the roots (had roasted beets tonight-yum), I now grow in containers and because I always harvest too early-MOST of my veggies are babies. Any of these awesome collections would be great. Thanks!

  492. Oh my goodness, I want them all! But if I HAD to pick then, the Rennaissance Root collection it would be.

  494. I’m jumping on the veggie container collection. Maybe I could do better with pests if my veggies were more portable. Thank you.

  495. I would love the container veggie collection for our back yard. 🙂 Thanks so much for the give away!

  496. great collections, but I am thinking the Root Renaissance Collection would be best for our area, just a bit North of your location. Hope to win!

  501. The container vegetable collection. Although since I live in Denver, I should take a trip up to Broomfield and get the stuff myself!

  505. I’d love to have the Root Renisance. I will be beginning my second year of raised beds. With names like “Gourmet, Carnival & Cosmic” I’m intrigued. Not to mention that I love root vegetables. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

  510. The container collection would be awesome please and thank you. Actually I would be happy with any of them.

  517. The Container Garden Collection would be a wonderful addition to my Tween/Teen Garden Workshop at the public library. We have containers, and have scraped together some money for the planting medium (organic of course), and all we need are the seeds.

  518. The baby collection sounds fun…they all do actually and I’d be happy to win any of them 🙂 Thanks so much for offering this giveaway. These guys do have amazing seeds.

  520. Mavis, you are an inspiration! Thank you for being so creative! I save most of my own seeds, but the Root Renaissance Collection interests me. Again, thank you so much for sharing everyday!

  524. Would love the vegetable container collection! Love these give always…. Maybe this will be the one…. Fingers crossed!

  529. I think the Baby Collection would be great. Thanks for the opportunity and for your great down-to-earth (no pun intended) blog.

  531. I would love to try their seeds in our cold climate. Trying to grow 1,000 pounds this year in my backyard, so a little extra in containers would help- Container Garden Collection.

  532. Container collection would be great. Have used Botanical Interests seeds for years and love them. Also am planning a container garden in downtown Tulsa at our church Caring Center to help feed the homeless and disadvantage and this would be a big help.
    Thanks.

  534. I would love to win and plant the Root Renaissance Seed Collection. I would eat fresh, can and dehydrate these beauties.

  535. Any of them would be great, but my choice would be the Baby Veggie collection. This will be my first year in many that I will have my own garden again, I’m so excited to get out there and play!

  536. Thanks for the contest! Gonna go for the Container seed set. I have so much trouble with gardening that I am going to have to try container gardening and see if that works. I live in Southwest Va and I am in the woods :-/ So I will have to move the containers around to chase the sunshine! :Þ

  538. Container Vegetable Collection! My yard is basically sand, so I can barely even grow grass. (No, I don’t live AT the beach, so there’s not even that advantage!

  545. I would love the COntainer Vegtable Garden collection, as I do not have much space! Thanks!

  554. I would really like to try all the collections. But I will pick the Baby Vegetable Collection as my first choice. I have been working on my plan to put out more vegetables in smaller spaces and to produce more produce in my small space. Thank you Mavis for all your insight.

  555. Not at all a simple decision. So torn between the roots and the container. Both? No? OK, I’ll have to go with the roots, then. More new things to try in that one. Thanks Mavis, and thanks Botanical Interests, for your generosity!

  559. The baby veggies sound soooo good. Its nice to think about the garden, especially since we have had snow on the ground for over a month now.

  560. Definitely the root collection! It’s got some of my favorites in it, like watermelon radishes. You’re announcing the winner on my birthday, too, so I think that means I have extra good winning karma, right? 🙂

  561. The container vegetable collection. I would totally give to my sister who I have been encouraging to start her own garden and this year will be her first….wahoo!!!

  562. How you choose between all your adoring followers is beyond me!! Got a pressure canner for Christmas so I would go with the Root Renaissance Collection.

  563. Definitely the root collection!! I have been wanting to try out root vegetables for some time. AWESOMESAUCE. You have incredible giveaways. Thanks, Mavis!

  569. I would love to start my spring/summer planting with the baby vegetable mix! Can’t wait to get in the dirt and get my garden ready to produce some yummy veggies!

  570. Im starting my 2 year old daughter on gardening this year so the container mix would be perfect for us! Thank you!

  572. I would love the container collection- just started gardening with my kid and convinced them to start eating a few of those veggies after they grew them themselves

  580. I would love to win the Container Vegetable Collection!
    BTW, I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog. I’ve never left a comment but I come visit on a regular basis. You are such an inspiration! Please keep up the good work. 🙂

  589. I would definitely love the Root Renaissance Collection. I live in South Carolina and I’ve been on a one woman mission to prove you can successfully grow beets and carrots in the red clay of the deep south in fall and early spring! I’d love to try these varieties.

  592. Baby seed collection please, but i’d be happy with any of the three. I’ve never had good luck with the root vegetables but am willing to try again. thank you, Trixi Agrios.

  594. Baby Vegetable Seed Collection please. I actually tried ordering from them, filled out the form and then on the check out read that they can’t send to Canada at this point. Bummer 🙁

  595. I would love any of them, but I would prefer the root renaissance! I love beets thrugh and through!! And all the other veggies too!!

  597. Container Vegetable Collection please! Thank you! I’m so excited to try gardening for the first time this year!

  601. Root Renaissance all the way! I love beets, and have yet to be able to grow them with success! They are always tiny, and I have more greens than beets!

  604. The baby veggie bunch of seeds looks awesome! I am starting my own farm this year and cannot wait to get started! Did I mention there’s still 2 feet of snow on the ground?

  607. I would love to try out the Root Renaissance packets- they look cool to grow- my hubby just loves beets!

  614. I would love to try the vegetables in the Root Renaissance Collection. Although I’ve grown vegetables for many years, some of them are new to me. Thanks for the great give-away!

  615. Great giveaway! How do I choose? Okay, if forced I would have to pick the Root Renaissance Collection. Thanks for the chance.

  619. I would love to win the baby vegetable collection. I really wanna get some beets in the ground this year.

  621. Root Renaissance Collection…because root veggies are awesome! And so is keeping it local…this Fort Collins gardener would be happy to continue growing Botanical Interests seeds!

  622. I would absolutely love any one of the seed collections! I’m counting down the days, minutes and seconds! LOL! till spring gets here!! Can’t wait to get my little garden going!! Thank you so much!! 🙂

  623. The container collection… looks amazing. Money is a bit tight so I can’t get as much seed as I would like this year and this would seriously help me out. Good luck to everyone who enters 🙂

  626. The Root Renaissance Collection – I’m involved with food justice/preservation/community gardens in my town and I would love to re-gift these for our Plant-A-Row initiative – the food grown is donated to our local food bank.

  628. I am downsizing from a house to an apartment so the Container Vegetable Collection would be perfect.

  629. Ooh Baby veggies!! I’m going from container gardening to a raised bed box this year…and these sound perfect.

  630. Baby #3 will arrive on Monday the 17th, so I think I have to go with the baby vegetable seeds! Have resolved to start gardening more with the kids this season.

  633. I’d love the container vegetable collection. I’m a novice gardener who is trying to eat more veggies. I’m also pregnant, and thinking this spring I’m going to be doing a lot more container gardening than lugging myself around the garden outside!

  634. Hi Mavis,

    Thank you for the wonderful opportunity! The Container Vegetable Collection contains all the foods i currently eat and i would put them to good use for the family.

    Kind regards,
    Vincent

  635. I would love and appreciate the vegetable container garden. I really am interested in learning and teaching my daughters how to garden. I think if they help grow it, then they would eat it.

  637. I would love to win the Container Vegetable Collection. I live in an apartment, so I think this would be perfect!

  643. I am a garden fairy and I would love to grow the “Baby Vegetable Seed Collection!” Botanical Interests is my favorite family seed company and I “spread” the seeds of their good work as often as anyone will listen!

  644. the container vegetable collection looks like just the thing to cure these winter blues…..or whites, I guess….

  647. I love, love, love Botanical Interest seeds!! If I am fortunate enough to win, I would love, love, love the Baby Vegetable Seed Collection! Thank you for the opportunity! Now if the snow could just melt away so I can start gardening!

  650. Winning one of these collections would be awesome! I would love to try the container vegetable collection~

  651. I would be happy with any of them however, I think the Container Garden Collection would work best in our area! Thank you for sharing the goodness! 😀

  655. I’d love to win the Rooot Renaissance Seed Collection. It’d give me a chance to grow some things I don’t normally grow. My order from Botanical Interests is on it’s way to me. What super nice people to work with.

  657. Mavis,
    I must say I got extremely excitied when I had seen you are doing a giveaway!
    I got hooked on your blog after coming across your hilariously detailed story of your husband cutting his leg with a saw while being out of town. To his painful expense, I now keep up with your gardening stories and look forward to your gardening success this year.
    I’d live to be part of the giveaway! The kinds of seeds that would be right for me are any that are NOT in the root renaissance collection- as I intend to share seeds with my neighbors and local gardening club (it is nearly prohibited to plant root-vegetables in our community garden) and I would love to give them all a chance at trying something they haven’t tried planting before!
    Thanks, and congrats! 🙂
    Nickatasha J.

  659. I got a sweet box of seeds just after a snow storm to make spring real, I’d like to add the Rot Renaissance Collection to my spring garden, look forward to another BI Box.

  661. We’ve not had much luck with our garden so perhaps container gardening might suit us better. I’d like to cast my vote for the Container Garden collection.

  662. The Baby Veggie Garden would be awesome!! This my second year in the garden and those seeds are everything I planted last year!! Thanks for everything Mavis!! [give the Puggle Dog a squeeze for me!!]

  663. Am I too late for the contest? I wil answer anyway because the only thing keeping me going here in cold COLD Minnesota is the thought of spring gardening. I would choose the container vegetable garden collection!

  665. All of the collections seem amazing, I would like to win the Root Renaissance seed collection. Thank you.

  666. I would love any of the seed collections. Botanical Interests is my favorite brand of seeds by far!
    The Baby Seed Collection I would enjoy the most! 🙂

  670. The baby veggie collection would be so awesome to win! I agree though that they all look amazing! What a great giveaway this is, thanks for the chance to win!

  672. I grow flowers and would like to try something other than cherry tomatoes—-now don’t get me wrong, cherry tomatoes are the “candy” of veggies. Bean Bush Tavera Organic (15 Grams) sound interesting or anything you think a beginner should try! Thank you for being so generous. €~|

  673. So hard to decide, I think I am going to have to go with the container garden collection to fill out my raised beds. Thanks!

  674. Actually, I’d take anyone of them. I’m big on veggies, especially carrots and radishes. Brings back memories of summers as a kid.

  675. Looking to contain my gardening enthusiasm this summer, so the Container Vegetable Garden collection would be perfect! Pick me!!!

  677. Hard to choose, but I’d pick the container veg (or the baby seeds). Either. thanks Mavis and Botanical Interests!

  679. Baby vegetables. Been son hot and dry in Amarillo, TX that only spring has been good gardening. Early harvest and of course chard!

  680. I cannot wait to start seeds this year. I really would love the container blend but really any are welcome. Zone 5
    Thanks again

  681. I would choose the container garden seeds. We just moved and won’t have time to clear trees and build a garden from scratch this year so anything we grow will have to be out of containers.

  682. Probably the container vegetable collection, since I do most of my gardening in containers it will be nice to have seeds designed for that purpose.

  683. The baby veggies! I have been ill and not working for almost 3 yrs. My garden is so important to us. It’s been a lot of fun. I have 3 regular neighbor kids who help and get a share of what we grow. I Also have 3 more who come from time to time. Their ages are 8-11. I also share my time, plants and seeds with a local food bank. They just started their garden last yr.

  684. I would love to win the container vegetable collection please! I just started gardening in containers, and it would be fun to use those variety’s of seeds!

  686. This is great! Any of these would be great. I am on a limited income, and try to grow something every season to supplement my diet with fresh food. The Baby or Container collection would work best, but I’d find a way to make the Root collection work! I hear you CAN grow root veges in buckets…would be interesting to try. Botanical Interest Seeds are very, very good. I’ve used them before. Thanks you.

  690. I think I’d like to try the Root Renaissance Collection. They sound like good ones for the kids to help with.

  691. I would love to have the baby veggie seeds! I am starting my first vegetable garden this year, I can’t wait how it comes out! 🙂

  692. Container Vegetable Collection would be my pick! Thanks, Mavis and Botanical Interests for this giveaway.

  696. Would love the container vegetable collection. I’d gift it to my mother who cannot do a lot of gardening herself but could manage a container garden on porch.

  697. The container collection please. We have hard packed clay so all my veggies are in containers.

  699. Root Renaissance Collection, please! Our little farm-ette does so well with root veggies and these funky varieties are such a hit at the farmer’s market! Thanks for the chance, have a wonderful day! 😀

  702. Would love the vegetable container collection. I live in a high deer and rabbit area of the North west and
    containers are the only way I can have a vegetable garden. Even then I have to keep them covered cause the birds will eat the baby greens.

  709. The Root Renaissance collection would be great! My kiddos love to pick their own veggies and really enjoy the multiple colored carrots.

  712. My twin boys and I would be thrilled to win the baby veggie collection. How fun it would be to tell them, ” let’s go grow some babies!” The veggies would be fun and a treat as well- You rock Mavis!!

  715. Really love your blog (you motivate me to start posting again) and researching all the companies and products you introduce. I would love to try out the Root Renaissance Collection! We are in the process of expanding our land.

  716. I would like the container vegtable collection, my husband drug 2 large old watering troughs up a hill for me to plant veggies in. These would work nicely.

  727. All three collections look awesome, but I have to choose one…. the Container Vegetable Collection.

  728. I love root vegetables! So good in so many things. The Root Renaissance would be my favorite and I even live in Colorado, BONUS!

  731. I have a very large Alaskan garden that I need to plant! I have already sowed artichokes (in the house)!

  738. I would love the Baby Vegetable Seed Collection! Thank you for the wonderful giveaway!

  740. I would Love the Baby Vegetable Seed Collection!!!!! Just the perfect size for the kids to help plant and pick! 🙂

  742. I would love to win the root Renaissance collection. I love root veggies, and they do so well in my garden!

  744. I would love to have the Root Renaissance Collection. We have built small raised beds for our 3 year old and 4 year old. We want to start them off with root veggies. What a great giveaway!!!

  750. I would love to win some container gardening vegetable seeds! Thanks for offering this contest!!!

  753. Those baby veggies would look amazing in my pallet garden…thanks Mavis for being such an inspiration!

  754. My goal this year in the garden is to grow a continuous supply of root vegetables (we can winter garden PNW) – so – we would love the Root Renaissance Seed Collection.

  755. I haven’t had a chance to try Botanical Interests yet, so would love any of the seeds, but if I had to pick, I think our family would like the Root Renaissance Collection best.

  757. The container vegetable garden would be great! We have yet to gather the funds to create raised beds as we live in a “gravel yard” but I am anxious to grow as my food sensitivities are getting worse. Thanks for the opportunity to win a great prize!

  758. Any of them really but the baby veggies would probably work best in my limited 4×8 garden and sound wonderful.

  760. The Root Rennaisance would be wonderful. I’m learning how to grow an all year garden here in NC, and most of those seeds fit right into my plans!

  762. I would love to try the Root Renaissance Collection. Just received our order from B.I., but don’t order much in that collection.
    I stumbled across your site mid summer last year and you have inspired me to expand my garden. By expand I mean grow ALL that I can organically for our family. My 5 year old daughter is loving every second. We just started our Romanesco (just harvested our Romanesco from Winter), Broccoli and Beets, all from Botanical Interest.

    By the way, check out the documentary The Harvest, it is sad, but true.

  765. The container veggie collection would be perfect for us since we are moving to a new piece of land and won’t have much time this year to get our garden beds set up.

  766. I would be happy to win any of the three collections! If I had to pick just one, it would be Root Renaissance Collection.
    Thank you for a chance to win!

  768. The root vegetables please. Love to garden and would love to win. Last summer, couldn’t garden due to surgery in June. I am ready to roll as soon as the snow leaves us in MN.

  772. All three sets look fantastic, but I think that I like the container garden set the best. Thanks for the opportunity to win this giveaway.

  776. All three of the collections would be a great prize, but I could grow the CONTAINER collection on the patio (and leave more room in the garden for other things).

  777. Root Renaissance looks super delicious! Love your seeds…I’ve used them many times with great results and sell them in the garden center I work at:-) Thanks for the chance to win!

  779. Thank you for the chance to receive such a great gift!
    The container garden would help alot!! Our yard has quite a slope to it and gardening is a challenge.

    Have a great day!
    Catherine

  781. They all look great but the container seeds would be wonderful to win! Thanks for the chance!

  782. I would like to win the baby seeds collection. Veggies picked smaller usually taste better to me- maybe these would be extra tasty!

  786. I would love to win the container collection!! We are in the middle of the nor’easter that has hit PA, we have well over a foot of snow on the ground, with more coming tonight and another storm on Saturday. Spring can not come fast enough!! 🙂

  787. Baby Vegetables please

    Though from the looks of it, Mavis – there are a LOT of people who want seeds!!

  790. All look interesting, but think I like the looks of the Container package! Thanks for the chance.

  801. The baby veggie seed collection please! I hope I can find time to plant them with my own baby around… and keep the deer, rabbits, and other critters out! 🙂

  803. What a great give-away…thanks! Radishes, and turnips, and rutabagas, O my! I’d choose the Root Renaissance Collection

  806. The baby Veggie collection would be great. It’s so much snow here- I think I must be in Narnia where it is always winter. this is getting old. linda

  807. I am celebrating my 1st anniversary as a raw vegan, so for me I think I would pick the Root Renaissance Collection, since I love juicing with root veggies. Plaining a big expansion of my garden this year so it would come in handy.

  818. The Container seed collection would be soooo perfect for our small raised and container garden!

  825. Container Vegetable collection would be a great win for my garden up in Ottawa Canada. Kids could help out too! Your website rocks!

  827. Woot free seeds! I’m all about the roots – yay parsnips!! Looks like a delicious collection!

  830. The container collection would be great. I don’t have much sun, so I need to grow my garden in pots, and even move them around through the season, chasing the sunny spots.

  832. It would be amazing to win the Baby Collection but I would be pleased to plant any of the collections.Thanks for the chance.

  835. Thanks for the giveaway! The container vegetables seeds would fit perfectly with our small space.

  836. That Root Renaissance Collection looks yummy. Totally reminds me of growing up and sitting out in the garden and eating. Yummy!

  838. the Root Renaissance Collection sounds good to me. now if only it wasnt -10F outside i could start working on my garden…

  843. Would love to win The Vegetable Container seed package-small back yard and one fresh dog make it necessary to plant higher and in containers- some luck but really just started using containers last year! My mother use to plant enough to can stuff all summer and my sister got her green thumb. doesn’t stop me from trying! Great Contest!

  844. YOU are my favorite blogger. CONTAINER veggies, please, and thank you. Or whatever is most available.

  853. I cannot speak more highly of Botanical Interest’s seeds….bought them last year for our container garden. Awesome germination rate and tasty carrots, radishes and lettuces,…the Cucumber Space Master gave us enough cukes for canning 24 plus quarts of pickles and many for salads and just eating!!! My choice would be for another Container Vegetable Collection. 🙂
