Trumpington Seedy Sunday 2016

Seedy Sunday 2016

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this popular seed swap event, held at Trumpington Village Hall, Trumpington, Cambridge CB2 9HZ on 24th January 2016, 1:30-4:00pm. Entry is £2.00 for adults, and children are free.

This is what happened:

Bring self-saved seeds to exchange, exchange bought surplus seed, or take seeds in exchange for a small donation. If you don't have any spare seeds, don't worry - there are always plenty to go round.

Talks

2pm: by Paul Robinson of Waterland Organics on 'Seeds and the Smallholder'
3pm: by Jo Sinclair and the Transition Cambridge Wildlife Wanderings group on 'Wildlife Gardening'.

Refreshments and food

Refreshments, tea and cake will be provided by Trumpington W.I.

There will also be home-baked artisan seeded-breads from Cambake, 'Richly Baked' and 'Abundance Bakehouse'.

Stalls

These will include: Thomas Etty Heritage Seed Merchants, Transition Cambridge, Trumpington Community Orchard, Heritage Seed Library, Cambridge Sustainable Food, Raffle, and more.

Poster

We now have a lovely poster. If you could send this poster round to anyone you know who might be interested, or print it out and display it where you think is suitable, we would be very grateful!

Volunteers and raffle prizes

We welcome volunteers to help on the day. Please contact the organisers. And if you can offer a raffle prize, we'd also love to hear from you (e.g. yummy home-made jams, chutneys, cakes, books, or a skill you could share?).
