Our annual Seed and Scion Exchange is a unique FREE event celebrating nature’s seed diversity. Whether you’re an experienced gardener or new to growing, this event offers a fun opportunity to exchange seeds, scions (cuttings), and gardening knowledge with fellow plant enthusiasts. Come explore the rich variety of seeds and scions—common contributions include herbs, veggies, annuals, perennials, and more. Plus, you’ll connect with a community dedicated to sustainable gardening and helping one another succeed.
This is a drop in style event so please plan to come anytime between 10 AM and 2 PM. Keep in mind that seed variety and availability will vary depending on what time you come and what other participants bring to swap.
