The Grown Local Christmas Seed Gift Box
A promise of colour, flavour, and new beginnings.
As the year draws to a close, this box looks ahead. Inside is a hand-picked collection of twelve varieties — a balanced mix of flowers and vegetables chosen to bring colour, scent, and flavour through the seasons. From coral salvia to rich, dark tomatoes, every seed has earned its place for its beauty, reliability, or taste — the kind of varieties gardeners love to grow.
Perfect for anyone who finds joy in planning next year’s garden, or as a treat for yourself when the nights draw in and the seed catalogues start arriving.
Each box is filled with shredded tissue, finished with a seasonal postcard we’ve designed especially for Christmas, and sent in a decorated box that’s ready to gift as it is. A thoughtful way to share the joy of growing.
