It's time for the Swap Sisters' annual Seed Swap. Please join us Saturday March 9, 1-3pm at the Hardwick Memorial Building, 20 Church St in Hardwick whether you are a new gardener in need of seeds or an old pro with homegrown or extra seeds to share. We will start with the free-for-all seed swap. In years past the swap has offered a lot of donated seed from local seed companies as well as seed saved by gardeners themselves and older or excess seed purchased from seed companies that neighbors are willing to share. We encourage all to attend this free event whether they have something to swap or not.

Last year we started discussing a Regional Seed Saving Collective with Ian Maas of Great Brook Nursery in Plainfield. A few folks did follow up with another meeting and some saving of specific seeds to share with the group. We will have a side discussion in the 2nd half of the swap where anyone interested in participating in a plan for a seed saving collective can join in. Ian also started a Facebook page for the North East Regional Seed Saving Collective https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553607701692 where you can share information about seeds you have saved in advance of the swap if you like. Check it out and help spread the word about this endeavor!
