Choosing a winner for WAHMania’s competition on “why organic gardening/farming is best” was extremely difficult, as there were so many good entries.

The competition winner is Bec P. who put her entry of 25 words or less in the form of a poem.

Bec will receive a copy of the new edition of Easy Organic Gardening and Moon Planting (with best gardening days to the end of 2013). Congratulations, Bec.

The two runners-up are Christine G. and Jasmine W. They will both receive a copy of the first edition of Easy Organic Gardening and Moon Planting (with best gardening days to the end of 2010). Congratulations Christine and Jasmine.
