<\/a>\nGardeners, from novice to expert, take note: The Kingston Area Seed System Initiative (KASSI) will be holding their annual Seedy Saturday on Saturday, Mar. 14, 2020.<\/p>\n
\u201cSeedy Saturday is a warm-spirited celebration of seeds, gardening and community,\u201d says Dianne Dowling, Kingston Area Seed System Initiative board member. \u201cBy March, gardeners are really looking forward to the end of winter, and the start of the growing season, but it\u2019s too early for outdoor gardening. So, they come to Seedy Saturday, and have a great time, browsing among the seed packages at the vendor displays and the seed swap table. I tell people to come to Seedy Saturday with a list, because otherwise, you\u2019ll want to buy one of everything!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year is the 13th annual Kingston Seedy Saturday,\u201d Dowling continues. \u201cA measure of how people have responded to Seedy Saturday is that we keep outgrowing our locations. It started out on Wolfe Island, then moved to the Wilson Room at the downtown branch of the Kingston Frontenac Public Library. Then we held it at Unitarian Place on Concession Street. We have been in the auditorium in LCVI for a few years now, which is a great place for our event. Lots of light and open space in the auditorium, room for our workshops and a lunch area, accessible by car, bus or on foot, and easy for the vendors and community groups to move their displays in and out. It seems to be just the right size to give the event a great community feel \u2014 lively and varied, but not crowded or overwhelming.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
