Join us at the Herb Garden for a community Seed Swap in anticipation of the spring equinox.
This is a free event open to all. You don’t have to donate seeds if you don’t have any, you can come and collect some seeds or also just come and hang out and enjoy the garden. We will have herbal tea, cakes and some plants for sale. Please bring a cup/mug for tea to help us reduce waste at the event!
Notes for Seed Donations
Put any spare seeds you have in an envelope. All seeds are welcome herbs, veg, flowers etc. If you have lots of seeds you can separate them into different envelopes. We will have plenty of envelopes on the day to help you to do that too. Label the envelope with the type of seed and variety if you know it, where it’s from (commercial, home collected, not known etc), date collected and any information you have about how it’s grown. You can also include your name if you want to. eg:
Runner bean, Scarlet Emperor. Collected from E8 2020. Tall, pretty red-flowered bean with lots of long pods. Needs lots of water.
Dark red beef tomato, variety unknown. Bought from Fig & Grain E8 2020. Sweet and juicy.
If you have seeds you would like to donate in advance please email us.
