Herefordshire Food Charter. Healthy food for people, place and planet

seed swap beansCalling  all growers, new and old!

"Swap your seeds in time for the new season -

The 15th annual Seed Swap event will be held once again at the Courtyard in Hereford.

This free event will take place on Saturday February 4th between 10am and 2pm.

At 11am there will be a talk by Liz Knight, ‘The Art of Foraging’.  Liz is author of “Forage – Wild plants to gather, cook and eat”

Beginners and seasoned gardeners are invited to swap seeds, plants and tips.  Those with nothing to swap can still join in and take home some seeds or plants, with cash contributions gratefully received.

Tools in need of sharpening can be brought along for service, and unwanted or broken tools can be donated to Tools for Self Reliance, TFSR Cymru.
