Come and learn about seed saving with Rosemary Stevenson from Rare Green Seeds.

Saving seed from your veggie garden saves money, helps reduce food miles and means what you grow is better adapted to your local conditions. In this hour-long workshop, Rosemary will teach basic skills in seed saving, explain different techniques for different plants and share resources to start you off on your own seed saving journey!

Rosemary will have available for purchase organically grown, non-hybrid, heirloom seed varieties locally adapted to the Wimmera. Cash only - $4.50 per packet, please bring exact change if you wish to purchase seeds.

This event will be indoors in the Salvation Army Hall, Horsham VIC, after the Horsham Urban Landcare Produce Swap, held monthly on the 3rd Saturday, 10am at The Patch Community Garden. All welcome to the Produce Swap - bring veggies, seeds, seedlings, homemade goods etc. to swap with others and share a chat over morning tea (supplied). Parking available in the Salvation Army carpark on Lynott St. If you like, bring along your seeds and plants to exchange at the seed saving workshop too.

This event is hosted by The Patch Community Garden and Horsham Urban Landcare with support from Victorian Landcare Grants.

Tickets are free for Horsham Urban Landcare and The Patch members, $10 for non-members. To purchase membership of Horsham Urban Landcare follow this link: www.trybooking.com/CTXJG
