Seedy Saturdays ... have you ever been to
a seed exchange? It can be an experience to remember. As you stroll down the
booths, you'll hear interesting conversations with knowledgeable gardeners, farmers
who have deep roots in the area - possibly for generations. Depending on
the size of the event, you'll see a huge array of varieties, most of which
you've probably never heard of and be introduced to all shapes, sizes and
colours of pretty much anything you can think of.
Attending events like these also
introduces local food and beverage producers who are offering snacks and refreshments.
You'll learn of groups and organizations (both big and small, unofficial ones)
that may peak your interest. Often, non-profits will display information
packages where you might learn about citizen science projects in your area,
things your kids can get involved in, learn how seniors are helping the
non-profits, and much more.
