Glovies for Garden ReLeaf Day storm Germany after launch at GCA Conference
095 GCA 2015 Monday Conference.jpgAfter launching the Glovies for Garden Re-Leaf Day idea with a world record attempt at the GCA Conference 2015, Glovies are now being reported across Europe.

GTN Xtra has just recceived this latest batch of Glovies captured at Christmas World in Frankfurt and at Frankfurt airport.











Getting a Greenfingers Glove into a selfie or any other picture is one of the ideas being used to get maximum publicity for Garden ReLeaf Day 2015 on March 27th.

Garden centres are reminded to register their Garden ReLeaf Day activities with the Greenfingers team so that they can be included in all of the national press publicity which will be generated at the upcoming Garden Press Event.

Boyd told GTN Xtra; "I have managed to go through the whole conference without really highlighting Briers support for the Glovies campaign. If it hadn't been for the beer they bought me last November the idea would never have been born!"

See Glovies from the GCA Conference on the gallery below and watch out for a Glovies Special Issue of GTN Xtra in the next few days - we'll publish all of the Glovies we've received so far. If you have a Glovie to add, please send to trevor.pfeiffer@tgcmc.co.uk.
