Freedom to save, sell and exchange seeds is what Seedy Saturday is all about.
You will find the community and instructions to plant and save seeds at several talks: For the beginning gardener, How to plant a seed: the basics, with Robin Sturley at 10:15 am and Making Seed Saving Fun, with Carolyn Herriot, Feb 15, 2 pm at Seedy Saturday.
- Seed Freedom is the basis of Food Freedom, since seed is the first link in the food chain.
- Seed is the embodiment of bio cultural diversity. It contains millions of years of biological and cultural evolution of the past, and the potential of millennia of a future unfolding.
- Seed Freedom is the birth right of every form of life and is the basis for the protection of biodiversity.
