plant & seed exchange
Exchange plants and seeds with others!
The Seed Exchange project began in collaboration with the Barking and Dagenham Youth Offenders Team, who have cultivated an allotment space on Fambridge Road. The idea developed through the shop spaces at a Tea & Toast session. When we realised there was an appetite for growing plants from seed, and that other residents that were interested in greening, the Plant and Seed Exchange was born. Seeds were on display for residents to take and swap with each other.People jumped at the chance to grow a different range of plants at home.
The need to be surrounded by nature is something everyone is exploring right now, for health, wellbeing and help the environment. Plant & Seed Exchange allows people to learn about plants, how to look after them and also exchange seeds and cuttings with each other to best spread the benefits of surrounding themselves with greenery.
