Event Information
Bring your labeled heirloom seeds and join growers across four states for a seed exchange including live bluegrass, food, and kids' bouncy house and face painting! We expect gardeners and farmers from Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, and Alabama. It's exciting to see family heirlooms and non-GMO seeds handed down for generations plus new seeds you may not have grown. Vegetables, fruits, trees, and flowers are welcome. Door prizes will be awarded at 3:30pm. Only cost to attendees is donation required by participants who do not bring seeds but who wish to take some home. Rain or shine, please join us! Indoor exchange will be available in case of inclement weather.
Seeds remaining after the event will be donated to the Growing Things Seed Exchange Seed Library. Each family can receive seven packets of seeds each month to help reduce food disparity. Click the link below to learn more.
What you should bring to this exchange
Of course you and family members of all ages are welcome. We have something for everyone. Label your seeds with the type of crop, the variety name, and the date of harvest, packaging, or sale. A photo is always appreciated but not required. Hybrids and GMO seeds will not reproduce as heirlooms do and for this reason guests prefer heirloom seeds either handed down through your family or purchased from heirloom suppliers. You may even bring or find plants that need a forever home. Bring lawn chairs to relax to bluegrass music. Do bring money to enjoy fabulous food from Five Points Mobile Cafe.
Our hope is to enrich not only our community, but the biodiversity of our local plant life for pollinators. Click the link below to learn more.
