Willsow books are the first of their kind. Never have you been able to read a book, plant a page and grow real vegetables, meaning you can meet the main character!

Willsow only use seeds that are tested and certified for planting in the UK, the US, EU, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and many other countries worldwide.

This range of books are designed and printed in the UK on recycled paper, and bound using natural cotton. 

For best germination results, seed books should be planted within 2 years. It will still grow beyond that, but the germination rates will decline after that period. Store our books in a cool, dry place, to preserve the germination rates as long as possible. But let’s not hang around, let’s get our hands dirty and get planting!
