Please help me congratulate the three lucky winners in our recent drawing held by Buffalo-NiagaraGardening.com. They are:
- Jeanne Watson of Hamburg
- Bonnie Finkbeiner of North Tonawanda
- Kalyn Szakall of Blasdell
The names were drawn at random.
Everyone who was subscribed to Buffalo-NiagaraGardening.com by March 28– even those who signed up years ago– were entered into the drawing. I’m happy to have so many new subscribers, and I love my loyal readers, too!
Each of the winners receives a $200 prize package that includes all of these prizes:

- A $50 gift certificate toward a BigYellowBag or other product from Lakeside Sod, 6660 Goodrich Road, Clarence Center.
- 12-inch high mini-bird-bath filled with succulents plus a $20 gift certificate from Mischler’s Florist and Greenhouses, 118 South Forest Rd., Williamsville.
- A one-year family membership to the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens. If you are already a Botanical Gardens member, your membership will be renewed.
- A special hand lotion for gardeners made by Crabtree & Evelyn, along with a $30 gift certificate from Lockwood’s Greenhouses, 4484 Clark St., Hamburg.

I want to thank the great local businesses who provided the prizes for this drawing. What a stupendous prize package!
Finally, I want to thank all the people who subscribed recently as well as those who are longtime readers. I appreciate your support!

Congratulations to the winners.
