Celebrate National Gardening Week 2023

National Gardening Week 2023 will be celebrated from 1st-7th May and this year’s theme is celebrating the Coronation of King Charles.

At the time of writing, we are awaiting full details of activities but National Gardening Week always celebrates the feel-good power of plants and gardens, highlighting the scientific links between gardening and well-being, as well as holding events and sharing gardening tips to educate and motivate!

Benefits of Gardening for Mental Health

 

Gardening is a popular activity for improving mental and physical health.  It gets your body moving and keep your brain active. Some doctors are recommending gardening and getting involved in tending community allotments, to help in the national fight against obesity. Connecting with nature, and gardening in particular has a myriad of mental health benefits including lessened depression, improved creativity, and more. As more people engage with planting and begin to experience its benefits, we only plan to see the trend become increasingly popular.

Growing one’s own food has always conveyed feelings of pride and self-sufficiency in times of hardship (think back to the “Victory Gardens” of WWII). Growing fruit, vegetables, or herbs from seed is also a great way to teach children where food comes from and how to grow their own. A practical but fun and nurturing way to educate children on the science of plants.

Use Seeds to Promote Your Brand for Gardening Week

As a supplier of eco-friendly, sustainable gardening promotional products, we dedicate ourselves to creating easy-to-grow seed  & plant-based products that are packaged in a number of creative ways.  Our products are the perfect fit for Gardening Week – giveaway seeds and get the nation growing! 

All products can be custom printed with a company logo and branding, with the option of vegetable, fruit, herb, or flower seeds, that work with the brand messaging.  

Seedsticks are our hero product and couldn’t be easier to use. Just place the seeded matchstick in soil and wait for them to germinate and grow. We’ve created a range of Seedsticks and other branded seed products, especially for Spring promotions.
