Garden Bag and Heirloom Seed Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed. 

Congratulations to the winner Mrs. Lewis from A Godly Homemaker, chosen from Random.org.

Thank you, THANK YOU for all of your entries!  

It has been so much fun to visit everyone's wonderful blogs and discover several new favorites!  Everyone has so many wonderful things to share and teach, I'm so inspired!  




Pin It

Isn't this bag adorable?!  

One day at our local Farmer's Market, this bag really caught my eye.  I had to have it, so I stopped to talk to the delightful lady who made them.  It is so fun meeting such wonderful people at the Farmer's Market!  I purchased the one and only Garden Bag she had and I love it!  I've used it ever since as my purse.  It's not too big, but not too small either and it sure catches everybody's eye because people are constantly stopping me to comment on it.  At our visit to the Pioneer Village last week, some of the ladies that worked there commented on it and went to get other ladies from their offices to come out and see it.  

Anyway, back to when I found the bags....

I went back to the lady's table who made the bag, the week after I purchased mine and asked her if she could make a few more for me to give away on our blog.  She happily obliged and they have been tucked away until now, so here's your chance to have one for your very own!

Here is a better look at the detail on the Garden Bag.  



Not only can you win one attractive Garden Bag, but I am also sweetening the deal with nine packages of Heirloom, non-GMO vegetable seeds.

The seeds included are:

Amish Paste Tomato
Yellow Pear Tomato
Millionaire Tomato
Candy Stripe Tomato
Striped Cavern Tomato
Sweet Red Amish Stuffing Pepper
Sweet Chocolate Pepper
Golden Treasure Pepper
Sweet Dumpling Squash

The bag measures 12" high, 10" wide and 4 1/2" deep.
