Are you getting sick of winter and ready for spring? Why not take a break from the cold and snow and come check out the Seed Swap at the market this Saturday, February 28th, from 9-12? There will be information available about garden planning, starting seeds, and even sprouting seeds indoors for a nutrient packed winter treat. A poetic reminder from Seed Swap organizer Sarah:
Bring seeds, take seeds.
Plants also welcome.
NO GMO.
Everything free.
Come even if you have nothing.
Bring everything you can share.
just like the plants give.

In addition to the Seed Swap, we will have the live music by Nate Staub and kids activities with the Dayemi Parent Child Collective.
