Welcome to the Green Gardenista’s first Green Giveaway! I want to do my part to spread the joy of “going green” around, by giving you a great tool to do just that in your own yard!
Green Stakes are a 100% biodegradable alternative to metal sod staples and anchors, that solve all of our rusty “how do I recycle these” problems. This green innovation dissolves safely into the soil 8-24 months after installation, and can be used for a wide variety of garden tasks! I have used Green Stakes to anchor sod, mulch mats, and wildflower mats, but they have almost unlimited uses around the yard, and can be used with landscape fabric and even bird netting!
I will be giving away a box of 500 four inch Green Stakes next Thursday, October 23rd, to the winning name I pull at random from a hat.
How To Win It Big: Enter your name, and what you want to use Green Stakes for in the comment section below, and stay tuned for the winning announcement to be made next Thursday! This particular contest is open to continental US residents only, due to overseas shipping costs. The stakes come in a box about the size of a standard shoe box..
Good Luck!
About Amy
Oooo… a high stakes giveaway! haha. I’m not sure what I would do with these stakes, but I will let our readers over on OPC know about the giveaway… I LOVE giveaways!
We just put in our yard at our new house and these would definitely come in handy to do landscaping with!
What a wonderful idea! I hate those garden staples!
These stakes would be put to good use at my parents new house.
these stakes are wonderful for anchoring down chicken wire and garden/tree netting! Thanks for such a neat giveaway!

I sure I will find a use for them in the garden!
These would be great, I have lots of uses
And I was sitting here wondering whether the store had stakes for my backyard area. I need to win.
have lots of uses too
I would use them to stake up my overgrown perrenials. Now we just need some biodegradable twine.
I need to put down the black fabric that keeps weeds from growing around my AC units. These would be used to hold down the fabric from high winds and leaf blowers.
I am planning on laying down a lot of Sod next Spring, this will come in handy.
I would use them to stake my new plants and herbs..thanks for the contest.
These sound like a great alternative to the metal stakes I now use.
A question, though.
Are they non-toxic? (Oh, say, if a certain dog chewed on one.)
I would love to win these for next spring!I have 2 little grandsons,age 3 and 6, that think they can do everything me and paw can do.these would be perfect for letting them help,much better than staples!We put out the early plants with liner underneath ,the boys could easily help.would be great with their strawberry and blackberry plants as well.
enter me please.thank you…
I need to put down some seed blanets and this will be great to hold them in place
I am redoing some landscaping and using fabric weed blocker. I could really use more lawn stakes.
I would love to use this to fix up someone’s lawn…I love helping people.
they would be just the thing to hold down ground cover in my greenhouse
THE GARDEN SEASON IS OVER, BUT AM PUTTING IN A COVER CROP NEXT YEFOR NEXT YEAR….
I am planning on putting in a rock garden around my deck and first need to lay down landscaping fabric, these would help tremendously!
I’d use them with landscape fabric in the gardens around the house, and with bird netting for the berry plants I’m putting in by the hill. Thanks for hosting the giveaway.
they would be very handy in my flower garden
They would be great for holding down a fabric weed preventer.
I could use these in my garden and home orchard.
We bought a bouse that was forclosed on. The entire yard is dead. I am sure that we can find a use for these.
We just moved into a new home. It doesn’t even have grass as of yet. These would be handy for making the flower beds.
Being biodegradable it would be great for and around the garden. Things I find after turning over the soil I would never intend to leave there.
That is so great.
very cool count me in
Count me in please
Iam putting in some new sod next spring and this would surly come in handy.
Rita,
The stakes are safe for pets, and biodegrade completely into carbon dioxide, humus, and water, so your dog will be safe should he decide to dig these up and chew on them.
I would try to see if I could use them as guides for my soaker hoses.
Looks like a great product. Thanks for the contest.
looks like a grat contest. Haven’t thought of any uses yet, but if I want won I am sure I could come up with a few.
Thanks
