M&S launches ‘Little Garden’ campaign where families can collect and grow 12 different seedling kits

Get them planting!

Although the stormy weather might have you thinking otherwise, spring is indeed on the way. And what better way to celebrate the new season that getting into the garden (or balcony) and planting something. Right now, M&S have just announced the launch of their Little Garden campaign, a collectable set of 12 different seedling kits, made up of flowers, vegetables and herbs, for families to collect and grow. Sounds like tons of fun? I know! The idea behind the 'Little Garden' campaign is to get little ones (and big ones!) excited about getting out into their gardens, getting their hands dirty, and collecting, growing and nurturing their very own plants. I love the idea of teaching my children how to grow things, and exploring where our all-important food comes from and spending time together as a family. The campaign kicked off earlier this week, and will run in-store across the country until the April 14th. Customers will receive one free seedling kit with every €25 or more spent in-store, containing seeds, soil and pot so you can get growing straight away. There is also a selection of adorable and affordable gardening accessories that families will be able to purchase, including a Little Garden Watering Can (€4) and a Little Garden Tool Set (€4). Your little seed sowers can also pop onto the M&S website to interact with a host of helpful growing tips from the M&S Gardening Expert Lee Connelly, plus lots of downloadable creative activities to keep them entertained while they grow their seedling collection, as well as educational information on where their food comes from.
