USC Coming to Seedy Saturday in Pickering
I received this message today from USC Canada, and thought I’d pass it along. (It reminded me that it’s Seedy Saturday season!)
If you’ve had enough of salting and shoveling for the season, get ready to dream of spring and attend the 3rd Annual Seedy Saturday Garden Show in Pickering. The event takes place on Saturday, February 6 at East Shore Community Centre (910 Liverpool Road South, Pickering), and includes displays and seminars with more than 30 local vendors and garden associations and a seed swap.
USC will be there too! Kate Green, who manages our Nepal program and campaigns in Canada and internationally on food sovereignty, will be on hand with plenty of USC DVDs, seed maps, and our new Jottings newsletter. And she would love just to chat about the work of our farmer friends overseas. So while your gardens sleep under their blanket of snow, why not come out for a visit?
Seedy Saturday runs from 10am-3pm on February 6, and admission is just $3. Bring seeds to swap if you have any. There’s plenty of free parking. Find out more about the event from Mandy at 905-683-8401.
Sounds like a wonderful event. How's your newest "little sprout?"
I haven't gone to the Pickering Seedy Saturday before but I've gone in Toronto a couple of times. It's a hectic but very fun gardening event!
He's doing great! Growing like a weed. I have a couple of garden-themed onesies I'm going to photograph him in and post soon.
