Get Seedy Saturday! – on the 2nd Saturday in March
Seedy Saturday! is an annual seed swap, potato day, and green fair for seed savers, keen growers, and anyone aiming for a more sustainable lifestyle.
It is an opportunity to share seeds, pick up some new and interesting varieties, exchange tips and experiences and find out more about local community groups and initiatives.
By growing, saving and swapping, gardeners can connect with likeminded local people, help to keep some wonderful traditional varieties alive, experiment and create locally adapted varieties and above all, have fun!
Next event: Saturday 12th March 2022 from 10am to 2pm, at Timsbury Conygre Hall. Find out more: Seedy Saturday
