    Have you double checked amongst the advertising leaflets?  I nearly missed mine as it is a very thin packet.

    Hi @Angelique2 😊 

    I opened mine after reading your post. My seeds were loose in the wrapping along with 4 pieces of advertising bumf (Bloom & Wild, Tails.com, naked wines and Out & Out). Have you got all of these?

    If they haven't got any more seeds I'll post you mine as I've got nowhere to put them.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    I read this and got the cover out of recycling box - and there they were! Very easily missed.

    yup went and dug mine out but no luck. I'll wait to see what the moderators says before I contact GW directly. Wild Edges thank you kindly for the seed offer but I'll see what GW comes up with.

    I have called the number in the magazine as recommended as my Mother in Law received her first copy of her magazine this week and there were no seeds.   It was a complete waste of my time as they said they would make a note and nothing else could be done. I do think they could have been more helpful when dealing with my enquiry.

    I am a regular subscriber and have been for many years and my husband now pays for 2 of your magazines (1 for me and 1 for his Mum) and I feel this is not the way GW usually would conduct itself. 

    I know since the new biodegradable covers have been introduced (which I think are great in theory) I have had a few issues with them popping open and my husband being a Postman sees this all the time, but I am more disappointed for her as it was her first copy for her birthday subscription.

    I have sent two emails to different email addresses and waited over a week for a response and I don't know who else to contact - any ideas please?
    Thank you!

    As an immediate solution, if your Mother in law wants the seeds, l think l still have mine somewhere. 
    It does seem to be a bit hit and miss with the seed  distribution this month. Unfortunately with the current situation there are real problems with staffing levels all over the place .
    As far as l know, the mods on this forum are working from home and l imagine the magazine staff are in the same position.
