open hand with assorted seeds

 Enables local growers of both flowers, fruit and vegetables to swap their excess seeds, seedlings and fruit and vegetables with other local growers.

The Seed and vegetable swap group is a whatsapp group which enables local growers of both flowers, fruit and vegetables to swap their excess seeds, seedlings and fruit and vegetables with other local growers. The group was set up in 2020 and lead to a large number of swaps between growers, thereby ensuring that no seeds were left unused or seedlings wasted. The group is generally active in the Spring, Summer and Autumn months. It also provides gardening advice to new growers which is helpful in encouraging more people to grow their own edible food. The  great thing about the group is that the swaps may result in people growing something they have never grown before, which can help them develop their confidence as growers.  The group is loosely based in the Tooting / Graveney/ Furzedown area but is open to anyone further afield who is prepared to travel.

To join, please contact us transitiontowntooting@gmail.com with your phone number so that you can be added to the WhatsApp group.
