Brand Focus

Willsow

When Tom Willday discovered that you could make business cards from seed paper and grow a flower or plant from that card, he knew there was potential to do more. Eventually, he had the idea of making a children’s book that you could plant, bringing to life its main character. 

Tom is part of a family printing company that has been going strong for 76 years. With all the facilities in place to create a book, and with support from TV Dragon Sara Davies, his pipedream is now a reality. Willsow's mission is to get books into the hands of youngsters and children back into the garden learning, growing and getting the chance to meet their favourite characters.
