Don’t forget to join in on the fun and exchange a variety of herb, vegetable and flower seeds as part of Seedy Saturday and Earth Day celebrations while you’re here! To take part in the seed exchange, please package your seeds and clearly label them with the type of seed, the year it was saved, and the number of seeds in each package. Donations are welcomed from those who wish to participate, but do not have any seeds to exchange.

We will also have house plants available at the Seedy Saturday table with all proceeds to support our gardening activities for the season.

An arts & crafts table will be set up on the 3rd floor as a creative space for families, and so plan on spending the day with us.
