EQUINOX SEED SAVE
SUNDAY 21ST SEPTEMBER 12 – 3PM
‘Seed is not just the source of life. It is the very foundation of our being.’
-Vandana Shiva, environmental activist and global seed sovereignty advocate.
On this Autumn Equinox eve, join in our annual seed-saving session led by local gardeners who steward the Toxteth Seed Library. Help us clean, sort and pack seeds after this bountiful summers growth.
Our annual seed share is a really important event in the Squash growing year. We’re passionate about seeds. We’ve been building the Toxteth Seed Library since 2010 – a fundamental element of our 100 Year Vision for Windsor Street and neighbourhood. Come and meet the Squash gardeners, who are the seed keepers and caretakers of this great legacy.
Following the attack on UAWC Local Palestine Seed Bank on July 31st this year by Israeli forces, we will be collecting donations for the Union of Agricultural Work Committees (a Palestinian non-governmental organisation dedicated to supporting farmers and promoting sustainable agricultural practices) to support their vital work restoring and protecting remaining seed sources in Palestine.
Drop-in. Free / by donation.
