Garden Organic heritage seed library support our seed swap as we share the same ethos.
I for one fully support and endorse their work in this feild.
'Since 1958, Garden Organic has worked to protect the rich, interdependent, diverse life that makes up our gardens and growing spaces. We set up practical projects that make a difference, we educate and inspire growers, we conserve endangered varieties and we lobby for change. And we will continue to do so - as the voice of those who care about organic principles.'
We also received a generous donation of seeds from Thomas Etty Esq , we are very much appreciative of the support of this independant heritage seedsman , it means a lot to us that they recognise we are on the same page and have the same ideals around safegaurding our seeds for the future.
