Courtney, Dawn, Stephanie, Katie, and Lia
Join Twin Cities Metro Growers Network and MN SEED Project for our first-ever combined seed swap!
Bring your collected seeds with you — plants native to Minnesota, annual flowers, fruits, vegetables, herbs, etc. for trading, swapping and giving. MN Seed will have seeds available as well. Seed packing materials will be provided. You don’t need to bring seeds to participate in the seed swap.
Stay and talk with educators to learn the basics of starting plants from seed and the benefits of growing plants native to Minnesota for pollinator and ecosystem health.
Registration: It is free to attend! Registration requested for planning purposes, walkups welcome.

This event is funded by Twin Cities Urban Agriculture microgrant from Renewing the Countryside and FSA/USDA.
The Twin Cities Metro Growers Network is a collaboration between SFA and the University of Minnesota Extension in Hennepin County.
SFA staff and volunteers occasionally take photos during our workshops, cafe chats and field days for promotional purposes and to use as documentation of events to share with our funders. If you do not wish to be photographed, please let our event host know — we’ll make every effort to make sure you are not photographed.
