Seedy Saturday
Thank you for joining us at Seedy Saturday 2025!
Thank you to all of our volunteers, vendors, and visitors for making this exciting day of learning, community and garden planning a success, yet again! We look forward to watching your gardens grow, and seeing you again next year.
What is Seedy Saturday?
Guided by Canadian charitable organization, Seeds of Diversity, the Kitchener-Waterloo Seedy Saturday seed swap invites members of our gardening community to exchange home-grown seeds, attend seminars, and connect with each other!
Seed swaps are fair-like events where growers exchange seeds from plants that they have grown themselves. Growing crops from home-grown seeds helps prevent the extinction of garden-variety species and in turn, protects the planet’s biodiversity. It’s also cost-effective and a ton of fun!
The first Seedy Saturday seed swap was held in 1990 in Vancouver. Today, there are over 100 Seedy Saturday and Sunday events across Canada, each year!
