SEED EXCHANGE

 

 SATURDAY 12th FEBRUARY

 

 

A big thank you to all who participated in our first seed exchange at Queen’s Court in February and who gave so generously. More than 100 packets of seeds were donated in advance with more arriving with visitors on the day. The WI team provided an excellent selection of homemade tea and cake for hungry gardening enthusiasts while they browsed through the trays for favourite seeds or something new to try.

 

In all we raised just over £100 and so were  able to make a donation of £50 to the Queen's Court Comfort Fund as a token of our appreciation for their kind hosting of the event. I do hope that everybody enjoys growing their seeds. Do let us know how you get on and please do  consider growing some extra plants to bring along  for  us to sell at the plant stall at  Trinity Fair on Saturday 11th June.
