Have you collected and dried seed stalks this summer and now are trying to figure out how to extract and clean the seed? Or are you interested in seed saving/seed security, but not sure how to go about the actual process?
Nanaimo Community Gardens Society volunteers are bringing the Farm Folk City Folk Seed Cleaning trailer to the Nanaimo North Public Library parking lot on Sunday, September 29 from 1-3 for drop in seed cleaning.
This is a great opportunity to learn some basics of seed saving for this year or next! As well as speed up some of the more tedious processes.
We’re hoping to share a portion of the seeds cleaned with the Seed Library at VIRL. As well we will be assessing which of the more simple tools Nanaimo Community Gardens Society might be able to make available locally through our proposed Garden/Food Preservation tool library! See you there! #farmfolkcityfolk #vancouverisland #nanaimo #seedsaving #growyourownfood
