We have no shade on the south side of our house, so it will help us with our AC bill and will provide a new shaded play area for the kids.

Leslie April 30, 2009 at 11:50 pm: There is an elderly, 87 year old gentlemen who lives across the street from you. He is on a fixed income and can’t afford any extras. In front of his home is a lot full of dirt. I would use the $100.00 to plant a beautiful garden for him that would give him many hours of pleasure. He did not ask for this, but since I am a gardener I thought it would be lovely to do something for someone else. This money would definitely go a long way in giving him some pleasure. Thanks for the great contest!
Leslie April 30, 2009 at 11:51 pm: Sorry, I made a mistake: THere is an elderly 87 year old gentlemen who lives across the street from ME not you. SORRY
Shelli May 1, 2009 at 12:05 am: I would either install a garden path or start a new flower bed in the front yard. Thanks!

John May 1, 2009 at 12:42 am: The flower beds in front of my house need some attention, I would use the card to buy mulch and plants for them and a hanging plant for the empty plant hook. I’d probably also buy a tree trimmer to fix up the tree on the front lawn. It has alot of dead branches.
Tina May 1, 2009 at 12:43 am: I also just posted this on my facebook account. Good luck to all who enter!
Barb Gierzak May 1, 2009 at 12:58 am: I would use the $100 Home Depot Card to Prepare a Garden Bed. Thanks for this opportunity!

Melissa May 1, 2009 at 7:04 am: This could be FUN! I would you it to create a vegetable garden with my 2 boys. They would learn lots, hopefully try some new vegetables and we would save money! All around good stuff:)
Rebecca May 1, 2009 at 7:07 am: Wow, we just planted our tiny garden this year. We only had one available bed about 9×4 feet. So, I’d love to prepare another bed and maybe plant some more veggies!
Funyon May 1, 2009 at 7:10 am: I would use it to build an above ground veggie garden (actually based on the one you posted about!) I am in the process of buying a house but sadly the current owners just sprayed (they are golfers, not gardeners and I wouldn’t risk putting my carefully tended to container garden into a sprayed ground. Thanks for all your gardening ideas as this is my first year of a veggie garden too. Here’s a thrifty idea back at you. I have some of my veggie plants, snap peas, cilantra, tomatos in a hanging garden that was made by recycling 2 liter pop containers, and heating the tops so they bow inwards. The bottom 2 inches was cut off and is used as a water collector underneath when it is finished. The plant is put in the opening (which is now bowed inwards) with the leaves sticking out of the top of the pop container and the roots hanging out in the bottle (we did when they were still small) we then flipped the container (bottom up in the air) and add our dirt/mulch/compost/sand mixture to anchor the roots. Finally we punched some holes in the bottom of the bottle (which being upside-down is now facing up) and hung them. Now when the plants are watered the excess water can drain out the bottom (which is the top of the pop container) and the plants can be hung by a window. Good for us because we tend to overwater or underwater our plants.
Renita Hegner May 1, 2009 at 7:23 am: I want to make a butterfly and bee
garden by planting lots of flowers that attract them. I
heard that there is a honey bee
colony collapse and I think by planting flowers that they like that maybe it will help their
situation.
karen May 1, 2009 at 7:48 am: I would use it to build a trellis in my garden for zuchinnis & beans. Fun for the kids to play under!
Eileen May 1, 2009 at 7:56 am: Thanks for the contest! I would buy a composting bin, grass seed, hay or straw to cover it (or something else that’s dog friendly), and a couple of gardening tools and pots to add to my tiny collection. We moved into our house last fall and this year I am pretty much just maintaining what is here, but there has been (and still is) some serious weeding to do. I have also started an herb container garden and think I’ll need more containers!
Christy May 1, 2009 at 8:00 am: I’d use it for one of the building projects—either the serving cart or storage trunk. One thing, it would be DH who’d be doing the building.
Stephanie May 1, 2009 at 8:03 am: I would first put in a drip irrigation system. Any money left would be used to expand my SF garden. How great would that be?
Crystal May 1, 2009 at 8:08 am: I would probably use the gift card to add a couple more raised beds to our garden.
Larry Harwell May 1, 2009 at 8:10 am: I would use it to fill your new raised beds.

Alissa May 1, 2009 at 9:13 am: I would use it to make some raised beds to grow vegetables and herbs, which I’ve been begging for, for months! Also, I’d get some perennials to landscape our lot. We have a big lot and did some clearing and we want to plant butterfly bushes and just naturalize the back edge to encourage bees, butterflies and birds around here. If I had money leftover from those, then I would get some decor to decorate our screened in porch to make it more enjoyable and entertainable.
Alissa May 1, 2009 at 9:16 am: I posted on Facebook. I have a blog, but it was for my son and I have not been doing it lately.

Carolyn May 1, 2009 at 10:00 am: Goodness, what wouldn’t I use it for?! I’d first start with fresh weed-and-feed for the yard, then I would get the materials (gravel, sand and pavers) for stage 1 of a small patio that is in progress in the back yard. Thanks for being able to offer a great giveaway!

shamayne everitt May 1, 2009 at 1:34 pm: My husband and I recently bought a house (less than 2 yrs ago) and this year we are tackling gardening. This summer is all about clearing out the weeds and such and planting flowers and making our house look appealing from the outside…so far no curb appeal. It always feels good to pull up to your house and see it looking beautiful! Also with these economic times we would like to look into growing our own veggies and such so I am excited to learn how to have a green thumb!

(I’ve never planted a thing in my life, so this year is an experiment.) Tomatoes, peppers, onions, strawberries, and parsley and rosemary are in! And flowers, lots of flowers. Next up: my kid’s area. I’m taking out the small patch of grass, need some weed killing fabric, need bricks, need sand. Need to get my toddler out of my tomatoes and into an area he can call his own. : )

Michelle May 2, 2009 at 2:08 am: Because I have three dogs, I’ve been thinking about a raised garden bed to help keep them out of my tomato plants; there’s nothing like a dog that feels the need to help you “water” your plants..ugh! The ones I’ve seen that are pre-fab are way too expensive and not very attractive. I love the plans for the raised bed at the Home Depot Garden Club site. That’s a project my husband and I could do during our upcoming vacation.

Maybe a small project: I’m thinking of something with some stone or a cool tile and put numbers in the center. Something that will go on the ground by the mail box. Something whimsical and unique.
If there is any money left a unique tree that will actually have some change of color in Florida. To give a semblence of change of season into Fall.

Awesome giveaway!! Thank you sooo much for the opportunity!!!

I am allergic to pollen & if that wasn’t bad enough also to just about every critter that bites! It used to be just bees & wasps, now everything munches away happily on me, making me miserable & not being able to get out in the garden !

I left my email on your sign up for leave a reply.

Jennifer May 6, 2009 at 4:44 pm: We just bought a new home last year (prior to the Tax Credit becoming something that I wouldn’t have to pay back!) and we need to do a lot in our yard. This year we’re building a Recession Garden to help with food costs. We’re also looking at improving upon the landscaping and moving random lillies that have popped up all over the yard! I think the $100 would best be put towards find a soluntion for the small but steep hill on the side of our yard that makes us worry about the lawn mower tipping over (or mowing down a chain link fence which I have been told is impossible but still believe may happen). We’re thinking of either using a ground cover or buying some edging/landscaping stones and filling the area in to creat a flatter surface. Please save us from lawn mower aerobics!
