Dear fellow seed savers, hope there's someone out there who can help with my request.

 

Is anyone in Melbourne able to exchange some seed heads/pods for harveting in return for seeds which have already been harvested, threshed and sorted? ? (unusual request, I know!). Our LSN (Dig in LSN, based at Dig in community garden Port Melbourne) has a practical seed saving workshop scheduled in two weeks time - Saturday 6 December - but we have recently lost our entire crop of snow peas which we were going to harvest seeds for this session. (very suddently).Unfortunately we don't have any other plant material ready to collect seed from at present, and I'd prefer not to postpone our workshop for a few months (until our silverbeet and spinach seed is ready to harvest) if I can help it. As a small LSN I feel it's important to keep the momentum going with regular sessions/workshops which is why i'm sending out this request.

 

We have small quantity of early long purple eggplant, casper eggplant and all season carrots which could be exchanged for plant material. And of course we could package and return a quantity of seeds collected from any plant material offered to us. 

 

Can anyone assist?

 

Kind regards

 

Paula
