Event Details

Join Master Gardeners for National Seed Swap Day at the newly launched Willow Glen Seed Library. National Seed Swap Day is a great opportunity for people to share their favorite varieties of seeds, as well as try out new ones. Collecting and exchanging seeds has many benefits ranging from preserving rare, heirloom varieties to saving money on seeds. Not to mention that the exchange of seeds perpetuates and improves biodiversity and promotes the ultimate form of recycling within your local area.

All gardeners ranging from novices to horticulture experts can benefit from the long-honored practice and tradition of seed swapping.

Master Gardeners will be on hand to answer your seed saving questions. Bring saved seeds and leftover seed packets, but not required.
