Seed Swaps

January 21, 2008 · Filed Under Garden, Getting Political, Seed Saving, Seeds 

Emma of The Fluffius Muppetus blog and The Alternative Kitchen Garden podcast just reminded me it’s the season for seed swaps.  Check out her latest podcast.

For those of you in the UK within traveling distance of Brighton, you may want to visit Seedy Sunday on 3 February.  Everyone else will have to search around themselves.  I’m sure there are Seedy Saturdays and Sundays going on across Canada this year, and the links on the front of this blog may help you find more information about these.

For those of you who don’t have any seeds to share, these events almost always have free seeds or seeds available for purchase.

    Yes, that’s my local, I’ll be there. Also I will soon post the seeds I’ve saved that are up for grabs. Thanks for drawing my attention to the GRAIN article – spells out the dilemma that we all face as consumers and growers. No easy answers.
