7:00 Making the most of the Seed Swap with Mat Rogers of Agrariana in the Sierra Club Room
The bounty of tables and tables full of seeds at the BASIL Seed Swap can be mind-boggling and the desire to collect them all overwhelming for the enthusiastic gardener and seed saver. This talk will cover basics to help you make the most of the seed swap. What crops can be grown together and produce viable seed? Which seeds can be sown directly in the garden and which must be started indoors? How do I know if this seed is good? Find out the answers to these and many more questions in this informative workshop before the seed swap.
