Do you love to garden? Gardeners become giddy when seed catalogs come pouring in. However, Seed Swap Day offers so much more. It brings with it the opportunity to talk about spring, explore varieties and the potential of their gardens with like-minded people. Seed swaps are not only an exchange of seeds, but are also an exchange of experiences, knowledge, and wisdom. It is a time to reconnect and sow the seeds of hope into your community, neighborhood, and organizations. And don’t forget the next generation, too. (Source: NationalDayCalender.com. Read more...)
