After a long Covid hiatus, this epic annual gathering is again afoot! Come join us this Saturday for some seedy shenanigans! I'm bringing all sorts of weird stuff I've collected over the years. Woohoo!!!
Seed Savers, Get Your Seeds Ready!
Want to Learn? Come to Seed Saving 101!
To kick off our 10th Anniversary, we are having our first Seed Swap in 3 years! We started celebrating Seedy Saturday with respect to the movement in Canada which promotes free or inexpensive events where people are encouraged to use open-pollinated and heirloom seeds in a local seed exchange. These events often include education about seed saving and gardening practices that are environmentally responsible.
Come learn, swap seeds, and then hang out and mingle while still reveling in the abundant potential of all the saved seeds that will be there!
While you're mingling, be sure to stop by the tables we'll have for our community partners, including:
Ariel Agenbroad, our local University of Idaho Food Systems and Small Farms Educator, will be on hand to share urban farming resources, new Extension publications, upcoming programs, and to chat with you about growing food, small farm enterprises, opportunities for military veterans, and more! Come say hi and grab a soil thermometer and germination chart while supplies last.
The Treasure Valley Pollinator Project is a community-wide effort to increase pollinator habitat - right in our own backyards. Each year we pick a pollinator to focus on - this year it is birds and bumblebees. Come see us to get more information about how you can participate
Treasure Valley Community Gardens Cooperative
Looking for garden space to grow more amazing veggies and flowers? Come find the garden nearest to you! Meet area community garden managers and find out more about what's possible!
We’ll have more events over the year as well to revel in the wonder of what it is we do and are passionate about!
