The Santiam Food Alliance’s annual seed swap and gardeners’ gathering will take place this year on February 17 at 6:00 p.m. at the Lebanon Public Library.
This event is free and open to all. Bring seeds to share, if you have some. Tubers and other roots are welcome, too, provided they are wrapped or clean. Be sure to bring envelopes and a pen so you can collect seeds shared by other gardeners.
This year’s Seedy Tuesday will open with a presentation by Linda Ziedrich on unusual vegetables and how to grow and use them, based on her book The Curious Kitchen Gardener, which was published by Timber Press last spring. Seeds will be available for most or all of the varieties she discusses. The event will also include a Master Gardeners’ advice table and an information table staffed by the Lebanon Garden Club.
Seedy Tuesday is a project of the Santiam Food Alliance, with co-sponsorship by the Lebanon Public Library, the Lebanon Garden Club, and Linn County Master Gardeners.
