Seed SwapSunday Feb 23 at 12:30 pm - 2:30 pm
Location: Groundswell Community Greenhouse, Invermere
Cost: Free
Swap, buy, trade or give away your saved seeds or indoor plants!
We have Winderberry Gardens coming with West Coast Seeds so you can buy them locally and get started on your seedlings.
Visit with Dale Wilker from Old Blue Truck Farm on “Growing & Saving Heritage Seeds at 1:30 pm”. Heritage seeds have been passed down for generations, grown for their high nutrient levels and other important individual qualities. Dale will share his heritage seed saving and growing stories, so you can benefit from using heritage seeds this summer in your garden and greenhouse!
At 3:00 pm join Dale Wilker for an Amend your Soil Workshop. Make sure to RSVP your attendance online at:
https://groundswellnetwork.ca/event/amend-your-soil/
Bring your seeds ready to swap, in clearly labeled envelopes, with info about the seeds: date collected, type, size…
Please don't bring any GMO seeds or seeds collected from hybrid plants, as it won’t grow true to type. Also, note that seeds remain viable for 2-4 years if kept in a cool, dry place, out of the light. Some seeds (onions, leeks, parsnips, celery, spinach) are only good for a year unless stored especially well.
No seeds to swap? No problem!
•There will be seeds to purchase and seed giveaways from specialty BC seed producers!
Plant swap:
•Bring your own seedlings, cutting or houseplants to sell or swap.
Look forward to seeing everyone on Sunday February 23rd!
