Kurt L Stalzer says
Mike,
I enjoy your emails even though my wife is the gardener. Turned her on to you last year. She loves the article search ability. Essentially I say that’s pretty and she makes it happen. Unless it has to do with building beds and boulder moving with the skid-steer.
Bought your CD initially, but I am confused as to all the different things you sell or give away. Could you list them and describe whether they are invite only, pricing, blogs etc in a future email. Don’t do social media and I barley can type on this thing, let alone know how to paste or what a url is. Tried Pinterest, didn’t work. Probably me. Oh well, I truly hope you have Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year!
Mike says

Lucy Ashes says
Mike, I have been following you for years. Even though I am a Master Gardener in Oregon, I have learned a lot from your simple, down to earth teachings.
Mike says
Thank you Lucy, I appreciate your kind words.
Connie Wheeler says
Awesome !!! I love any gardening gifts of any kind !! They always seem to wear out or get lost so can always use new ones !!
Thanks Mike !!

Hi, Mike…So glad I just happened upon your website. I used to receive your emails when we lived up in Willowick, but lost track when we moved to Florida. I’ve resubscribed, and look forward to learning all kinds of good info.
I hope you and your family have a blessed Christmas and a wonderful New Year.

Jane Ferguson says
Thank you, Mike, Merry Christmas to you from Vancouver, BC, Canada. Love your stories and your notes on gardening. I’m working hard to meet you and your gardening group someday.
I have US address as well in Bellingham very close to Vancouver, should I win, I can get both gifts from WA, State. He, he, he!!!
Mary B Henderson says
Don’t do facebook, twitter or pintrest but love the information you so freely share with everyone. I have given your information to everyone I know that loves to garden. I also have a Mantis Tiller that is a back saver and really gets the job done in the compost pile and flower beds. Merry Christmas to you and your family along with the donkeys. Christ is the reason for the Christmas season but let us share his story all year long.
Mike says
Thank you Mary, I appreciate you!
Jan Brown says
Wishing you and your entire family a warm and very Merry Christmas! Thanks for all that you all do 😉

I bought my Mantis tiller because you recommended it and I love it so much I went and ordered one for my daughter-n-law !
Philip D says
Hello Mike,
I really enjoy your website and try to learn something new every time I visit. Thanks
Jay says
Hi Mike! I shared on Facebook, Twitter, and I emailed a few garden heads I know who do not use social media! And Pinterest of course!
But it does not show that I earned 10 points! 🙁
Duston says
Make sure you share the giveaway by using the little box in the middle of the post. If you share it using the buttons on the side of the page you won’t receive credit.
Jon says
I shared both contests via Twitter and Facebook and Pinterest, but the counter shows only two entries earned. What went wrong?
Duston says
Jon, the counter at the top just shows the completed options available to you to earn entries. You have two options… 1. Sharing via Twitter, Facebook or Email, and 2. Pin “This Image” On Pinterest. That number doesn’t reflect the number of entries you have in the contest, just the number of options you’ve completed to enter.
Debi Pfahl says
Subscribed, Pinned and Shared on Facebook but it doesn’t work. I love my Mantis. It is now over 15 years old and has only been professionally serviced once. We do all the routine maintenance ourselves. It would be great to get a new one.
Duston says
What do you mean by “it doesn’t work”? Are you getting an error message?
Fran Eriksen says
How can I get in on a drawing for a Mantis tiller. I would love one and it would make my gardening easier.
Denise Tomkins says
Thanks for all the information you share Mike…and company!??
Fran says
Great ideas every time!
Dan says
Shared. Merry Christmas Mike. Thanks for the great gifts.

I love my Mantis tiller so much that I bought a 2nd one! Gave the 15-year old one to my neighbor and he did a carbuerator rebuild and now he’s enjoying Mantis too. Perfect for keeping weeds down and edging around trees and beds. Thanks Mantis!
