🌱 Seedy Saturday at the Merrickville Library – April 18
Join us for Merrickville’s 5th annual Seedy Saturday on April 18 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Merrickville Library. It’s a wonderful way to welcome spring and connect with fellow gardeners and nature lovers.
🌼 Pollinator Garden Workshops
Alongside our popular seed and seedling swap, the Merrickville Lions Club will offer two hands‑on workshops – starting at 9:30 and 11:00 – on how to start your own pollinator garden. Whether you have a balcony or a backyard, you’ll learn how to create a vibrant space that attracts butterflies, bees, and birds. All materials are provided.
🐝 Learn from Local Experts
Between workshops, Dr. Katie Weststrate, ND will give an informative talk on ticks—an important topic as the weather warms.
You can also chat with representatives from:
- MaD Gardeners
- Seeds of Diversity
- Canadian Organic Growers
These groups are fantastic sources of gardening knowledge and inspiration.
🌿Check Out the Seed Library
Browse a free selection of vegetable, herb, and flower seeds to help kick‑start your spring planting.
We hope you’ll join us for a morning of learning, sharing, and community connection.
This is a free event, but donations are appreciated to support next year’s Seed Library.
See you there!
