Seedy Saturday

Join us at Seedy Saturday, 2025!

Drop by the Kitchener Public Library Central Branch (85 Queen Street North, in Kitchener) on Saturday, February 22nd, between 9:00am and 2:30pm for an exciting day of learning, community and of course, garden planning! More details coming soon!

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!
