SEED SWAP

Due to the increasing popularity of Seed Swaps and the vital part they play in
preserving our plant heritage, we had our first Seed Swap Table at the 2008
Potato Day.  It was a great success, and we have continued it in subsequent years with the hope of an even greater range of seeds available.

How it works

Bring packets of saved seed, your own or bought, and swap them for other packets on the seed swap table, ie 2 packets in, 2 packets out.

If you have no seeds to bring, you can still join in by making a donation (per packet) for any seeds on the seed swap table.

Points to remember

  • Do not save F1 seed
  • Onion, leek, corn and parsnip seed are short-lived
  • Beware that runner beans and pumpkins are prone to cross-pollination
  • Store seed in a cool dry conditions
