Annual Seed Swap scheduled Saturday

-

The 11th annual Seed Swap will be held Saturday, Jan. 25 at Trinity Methodist Church, 285 E. Fifth St., and everyone is welcome to participat­e, whether they contribute items or not. There is, however, a need this year for more donated items as some previous sources will no longer be supplying seeds.

The event will feature a special early opening “home grown seed share” session, 11:30 a.m.-noon, for Camp Fire gardeners and folks who have homegrown seed to share faceto-face with others. The main seed swap, potluck style, will be open from noon to 2 p.m.

Items to bring for sharing may include seeds, bulbs, plants, cuttings, scions, garden produce and work tools to share (label these items). Those who donate items should label their contributi­ons, i.e. what kind of seeds, etc., if they are not in identified packs. All who attend should also bring their own envelopes to identify items they take if not prepackage­d, pens or pencils for labeling and bags for plant divisions, cuttings and scions.

For more informatio­n or to volunteer to help, text or call Sherri Scott, 342-3376 or email sherri@ grubchico.org.
