Fall Seed Saving Workshop
September 17, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 12:30 pm
We’re celebrating Urban Agriculture Week with a drop-in-style workshop! Our workshop will explain how to save seeds of vegetables that you can harvest in the Fall, such as pumpkins, squash, garlic, root vegetables, cabbage, kale, and brussels sprouts. We will also demonstrate how to save your own tomato seeds through a fermentation process. Market visitors will learn how to do this and then take seeds home in a jar to complete the process. A great activity for kids!
The presentation will give some tips on seed saving and storage while learning why saving seeds is important in the first place. Folks are also welcome to bring seeds to share from their home or take seeds for free from our Community Seed Library.
Volunteers from Toronto Master Gardeners will also be in attendance on September 17 to answer any gardening questions and provide information about native plants that are good for your garden. While at the farmers market, be sure to also visit the participants from our Urban Grower Project!
The workshop and our Seed Library are located at the farmers’ market. A map of the market can be found on our website landing page here: withrowmarket.ca
9am to 12:30pm on Saturday, Saturday, Sep 17, 2022
