HERE’S an offer that will grow on you … a Wokingham-based garden centre is offering sunflower seeds to children during May.
Available from the information desk of the Heathlands Road garden centre, people will be invited to make a donation to its charity of the year, Just Around the Corner.
Known as JAC, it offers children and young people a range of hands-on activities including arts, crafts, music, carpentry, mechanics, horticulture and pottery, and is probably best known for their work with horses from its stables based off Forest Road.
The seeds come with some growing tips, so that the plants can reach for the sky.
And then when they bloom, children will be invited to take a picture of themselves with the sunflowers and a measuring tape. The tallest one will have the change to win a £100 gift certificate for Squires.
Two runners-up will both receive £50 gift certificates.
There’s only one pack per household, and is for under 16s only.
