Wild Ones Mountain Laurel Chapter
Our next event is Sharing the Abundance: Spreading Native Seeds
DATE/TIME: Saturday, January 25, 2025 @ 12 PM-3 PM (Note: The first hour 12 PM-1 PM is restricted to those bringing seeds to exchange; the event is open to all at 1 PM.)
LOCATION: Dudley Farm, 2351 Durham Rd, Guilford, CT 06437, see Google Map
DESCRIPTION: Tis the season for native seed starting so we are sharing seeds to encourage the planting of seed-grown native species that strengthen local ecosystems and create climate-resilient landscapes. Bring native plant seeds to swap for different species to diversify your habitat plantings. If you do not have seeds to exchange, you can still take home an assortment of seeds. There will be displays and demonstrations of winter seed sowing in pots, and experienced native gardeners can help you select species that are suited to your growing conditions.
This event is free and open to all. Admission during the first hour (12 PM-1 PM) is restricted to individuals with seeds to swap; everyone is welcome to take seeds after 1 PM. In case of hazardous driving conditions, cancellation will be posted to Dudley Farm and Mountain Laurel chapter websites by 12 PM the day prior (January 24th).
If you have seeds to share, please follow these guidelines to help our seed sharing event run as smoothly as possible! If you have questions or would like to volunteer to help with this event, contact [email protected] .
