#UK, #Timsbury, #Somerset - #SeedySaturday returns to Timsbury with rare seeds and #gardening secrets
by Lewis Clark, March 3, 2025
"The annual seed and spud spectacular, Seedy Saturday, is set to return on Saturday, 8 March, bringing a blooming good time to Timsbury’s #ConygreHall. Gardeners of all levels, from seasoned horticulturists to budding green thumbs, can exchange seeds, gain expert advice, and browse a diverse selection of plants, produce, and eco-friendly goods.
"Now in its 15th year, the community-driven event will take place from 10am to 2pm. At its heart is the #SeedSwap, where visitors can leave home-grown seeds for others while picking up something new to cultivate. This tradition has helped to preserve rare and localised varieties, including #HeritagePeas and the #FarmboroughBean, a unique strain developed through years of careful seed selection.
"In addition to the swap, attendees can browse stalls selling seeds, #potatoes, fruit bushes, #herbs, cottage #perennials, and locally crafted goods. Homemade preserves, plant-based products, and gardening equipment will also be available. Expert talks will provide insight into gardening, seed saving, and #composting, while demonstrations and a children’s craft zone will ensure there is something for everyone. The Kitchen Café will serve tea, coffee, soft drinks, bacon rolls, and homemade cakes.
"Event organiser Sam Ross said: 'This event marks the start of the growing season for #SeedSwappers, amateur gardeners, allotment-holders, horticulturists, and anyone passionate about nature and the environment. The friendly, local and sustainable ethos encourages everyone to have fun growing plants, alongside saving and sharing seeds and stories with friends and neighbours.'
"Seedy Saturday is run by a small group of dedicated volunteers and is supported by sponsors Pennard Plants and Beans and Herbs. Entry is £2 for adults, while children under 16 can attend for free."

#Tennesse: #Kingsport #library hosting #SeedSwap Feb. 15 at #FarmersMarket
"Calling all green thumbs and garden enthusiasts. The Kingsport Public Library will be hosting a seed swap event next week at the Kingsport Farmers Market.

"You can also join in with the hands-on seed-starting activity where folks can plant seeds in water jugs with potting soil (while supplies last).
