Get exclusive behind-the-scenes access at this open event, which will offer you a rare opportunity to view our working spaces to reveal how and why we grow heritage varieties for seed.
You can explore our polytunnels and outdoor beds to see the methods we use to isolate and pollinate crops to ensure varieties are conserved 'true-to-type' for future generations. And introduce you to a few of the unique and unusual varieties in the collection, as well as provide a sneak preview of our growing trials of recently rediscovered heritage varieties.
We'll share some easy - and more tricky - seed-saving techniques with you. And you can discover how we hand-pollinate and seed clean, to get you started on your own seed-saving adventure.
Sign-up on the day for short tours of our seed growing and processing areas with our expert team. There's time afterwards to explore our organic garden, enjoy some refreshments and ask questions with our Heritage Seed Library team.
We recommend you wear clothing and footwear suitable for the outdoors.
Please be aware that access within our working spaces can be uneven underfoot and include steps and slopes. For more information about accessibility please contact customerservices@gardenorganic.org.uk.
