Please join us for our community’s 1st annual Seedy Saturday hosted by Foods of the Fundy Valley!

What’s Seedy Saturday?

Seedy Saturdays are held across the country and around the world. These events bring together like-minded gardeners, farmers, seed savers and community members passionate about mindful gardening, food security and our environment.

What’s a Community Seed Swap?

Simply bring seeds and swap them! This free exchange allows gardeners of all levels to swap seeds with others in the community at the Community Seed Swap table at the event. It’s a chance to find unusual seeds or learn about something you’ve never grown before.
