Florenceville-Bristol Garden Club continues tradition

Seedy Saturday will happen on Saturday, March 15, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., at the R.G. ‘Bun’ Veysey Active Living Centre’s community room at 40 McCain Street in Florenceville-Bristol.

This is a seed-sharing event hosted by the Florenceville-Bristol Garden Club. People are asked to bring seeds they have collected or would like to share.

Please note—LABEL ALL SEEDS (veggies/flowers, etc.) with the plant name, variety, whether it’s an annual or perennial/biennial, the colour, plant height, and sunlight needed. Garden Club members ask that you NOT SHARE invasive species.

NO SEEDS? NO PROBLEM! Come and share and learn!

The club also accepts new members (beginners and experts welcome) and has an annual membership of $2.

For more information, contact Michelle Corcoran at [email protected]
