Garden centre releases a ‘Grow Your Own Brexit Survival Kit’ | SWNT TV
An imaginative garden centre has released a Grow Your Own Brexit Survival Kit - to combat food shortages in the event of a no deal Brexit. Bosses at the centre have created a pack of 12 different vegetable seeds to plant, which can provide a year-round supply of nutritious food. The full kit is £34 and provides 12 packs of easy-to-grow seeds, including carrots, peas, lettuce, tomatoes, broccoli, broad beans, spinach, kale and pumpkin. Paul Carmichael, the retail general manager of Cardwell Garden Centre near Gourock, Inverclyde, came up with the imaginative idea. Mr Carmichael said: "There has been a huge amount of publicity surrounding the potential for food shortages if there’s a no deal Brexit.
