Garden and Plant Newsletter 29 September 2023

Hello friends of Cam Home & Garden

It’s getting windy and autumnal – time for bulb planting, leaf raking and some preserving of fruits and other produce. Yes – we have all you need for these activities! And we have a special houseplants day coming up…

20% off all indoor plants on Saturday 14 October!

To help you keep your green fingers busy over winter, we are having a Houseplants Event on October 14. This is a whole day event: come and browse early to get the best choice of stock!

We’re ordering in lots of new houseplants in readiness and offering 20% discount on houseplants on the day. Bring your questions about how to care for your new plants. Then get ready to turn your home into a lush jungle!

Turn your garden fruit into delicious beverages!

Turn your grapes into wine – and use up any old apples or other fruit as well. We have the kit, the recipes, the ingredients and our range covers wines, ciders, beer and more! Gervin wine yeast, Mangrove Jack’s cider yeast, Campden tablets – we stock them all and get regular deliveries.

We can advise on the best type of equipment and what you need to get started.

We have years of experience ourselves: no question is too basic or too complicated. There’s nowhere else you can go locally for face-to-face advice and tips, along with a wide selection of tools, vessels and ingredients.
