The Peterson Garden Project is sponsoring their annual seed swap on Sunday, March 4, 2:00 to 5:00 p.m., at Swedish Covenant Hospital’s Galter Pavilion, Second Floor, 5140 N. California.
There is no cost for admission.
Trade your eggplant for zucchini, your cucumber for tomato. In addition to the seed exchange, there will also be opportunities to learn about planting, edible seeds, heirloom vegetables, and more. I did this last year and got some fantastic stuff--and got rid of some things that I knew I didn't need but didn't want to go to waste.
Also, for those of you have been following the garden, we are moving! The current location is being turned into a medical clinic but Peterson Garden Project volunteers will be on hand to discuss the three new community gardens they've secured for 2012. Details on sign-up to reserve garden plots will come mid-March; sign up for the Peterson Garden Project newsletter or follow their Facebook page for the latest information on the 2012 growing season.
Dues are $65 and include a 10’ x 4’ raised bed with organic soil, mentoring from master gardeners and access to the project’s learning programs.
