The Neighbourly Backyard Awards
We are kicking off The Neighbourly Backyard Awards, a campaign where you can show off the hard work and love you’ve put into your backyard and win prizes for it!
We'll be rolling out the competition by sharing a new category (and new $100 Mitre10 voucher) every week.
There's three fun categories for you to enter:
Best loved lawn
Best floral garden
Most creative backyard build
To be in to win, keep an eye out for the post from us every Monday announcing the new category in a post and you can share your entry in its comments below. It starts Monday 27th January when we'll be taking entries for Best Loved Lawn so get prepping, neighbours!
