Jubilee Doorstep Challenge - WIN £50 of St Bridget's plants

It's getting all red, white and blue in our garden centres in preparation for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics. The Olympic torch passed through Exeter last Sunday and the sun has shined on us since!

We've got a FANTASTIC competition to help celebrate these two events and to brighten up the doorstep of either your home, school or workplace.

All you have to do is create a patriotic floral display by your front door, photograph it and send St Bridget Nurseries your entry by the end of June. They will then display your entry in both their garden centres for a public vote ending on 25th July. The winner of each category will then win £50 of St Bridget's plants and go on to national judging (winners will be annunced in September). For further details on how to enter check out the events page of the official website.

It's wheelie wheelie tough!
Today at St Bridget's in Old Rydon Lane we welcomed Alan Murdoch from Fermoys in Newton Abbot who is cycling on a tandem all the way to the Chelsea Flower Show. If that in itself sounds tough try pulling a planted wheelbarrow along too!
Alan is doing this 247 mile cycle for charity raising money for Greenfingers and Gardening Leave.
Various people are stepping in along the way to join Alan on the back on his bike. After leaving us at 11am this morning Alan was heading to the Devon County Show and tomorrow he heads for Dorset.
