Win the Ultimate Veggie Gardening Duo!

Let’s be honest: vegetable gardening is incredibly rewarding, but it can also be an absolute test of patience.

Right now, we are smack in the middle of peak growing season. It's that beautiful, chaotic time of year when the weeds seem to grow overnight, and trying to remember exactly where you planned to succession-sow your next round of carrots—without crowding out your tomatoes—can feel like a giant puzzle.

To have a truly successful, stress-free harvest, every grower needs two things in their arsenal: flawless organization and the right tools for the job.

Because we want to help you achieve your most organized, productive, and weed-free garden ever, we are launching our biggest competition yet. We’ve teamed up to give away the ultimate gardening duo to one lucky winner!

The Grand Prize Bundle

Our lucky winner will take home the two most useful, game-changing tools any vegetable gardener or allotment holder could ever ask for:

1. A LIFETIME VegPlotter Advanced Subscription

No more messy sketchbooks, outdated spreadsheets, or accidental crop rotation mistakes. With a Lifetime Advanced Subscription, you unlock the full power of VegPlotter forever. You’ll get unlimited planting tracking, the ability to create your own custom plant varieties with unique spacing defaults, and full access to our task and progress tracking features across all your devices. It is the ultimate digital partner for your plot.

2. A Premium Niwaki Hori Hori Knife (with Leather Holster)

If you’ve never used a Hori Hori knife, prepare to have your mind blown. Translated from Japanese as "Diggy-Diggy," the Niwaki Hori Hori is the undisputed Swiss Army knife of the gardening world. Its heavy-duty, carbon-steel blade is sharp on one side and serrated on the other. It lets you slice through tough roots, scoop soil for planting, and pull up deep taproot weeds with absolute ease. Plus, it comes with a gorgeous, durable leather holster to keep it safely at your hip while you work.

Good luck, and happy plotting!

At VegPlotter, we're always striving to enhance your gardening experience by providing a comprehensive range of plants to cultivate. You asked for more varieties, and we've delivered! Over the past few months, we've expanded our plant database to include an array of exciting vegetables and fruits. These new additions are now available for you to incorporate into your garden plans.

VegPlotter has been free for all to use for over 6 years. But the rise in its use over the last two years has meant that the costs needed to run it have escalated. March was a VERY expensive month for VegPlotter and even with all your very kind donations, I cannot sustain it as a free service.

I hoped that the release of the Custom Plants feature as a Supporter Only feature would tempt more people to support VegPlotter, and it has. But it has not been enough to counteract the cost increases.

So I am left with only one option, to move VegPlotter into a new phase of being a paid-for service. I hope you all understand.

I plan to roll out the change on Monday (18th April).

It's not all bad though as I believe making this change will help me to put more time and resources in to developing it.

I've set an annual price that is still cheaper than the alternatives out there and I've also kept VegPlotter free for schools and pupils to use.

As a thank you to those that donated to VegPlotter. If you did support VegPlotter previously you'll be automatically subscribed and get a free year of the VegPlotter Advanced package which includes the Custom Plants.

Once again, thank you for all your support! I really appreciated it. This was not a decision I wanted to make.
