 Join us for one or both of these West End Urban Garden Club workshops.
  We'll have a Seed Library present - you can get some free seeds for y
 our garden or swap or donate some seeds.\n\nBeginning Seed Saving: Bas
 ed on The 5 Levels of Seed Saving, we'll focus on annual and biennial 
 food plants. Instructors Leonie Croy and Maria Hunter (Dragonfly Seeds
 ) will identify self-pollinators and cross-pollinators, and talk about
  the best seeds to start saving, including the easiest seeds to save i
 n small gardens and why, and how to harvest, dry and store seed, and w
 e'll clean some seed. Participants are welcome to register/stay for th
 e Advanced workshop.\n\nAdvanced Seed Saving: This workshop's for anyo
 ne who understands the basics of seed saving. Maria and Leonie will di
 scuss topics which relate to saving more challenging food plants, like
  cross pollinators (squash) and biennials like brassicas, esp. as they
  relate to seed saving challenges in city gardens. Bring your Q's - we
 'll address your seed saving issues.\nFREE. Registration required. Lim
 it 20/session.\nTo register: WECC 604.257.8333, in person, or online.\
