The 15th Annual Washington Gardener Seed Exchanges, hosted by Washington Gardener Magazine, take place on January 25, 2020, at the Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, MD, and on February 1, 2020, at Green Spring Gardens in Fairfax County, VA. You have a choice of which side of the DC Beltway you want to visit!
Seed Exchange attendees trade seeds, exchange planting tips, hear expert speakers, and collect goody bags full of gardening treats. The event also includes such “green” features as the garden book and catalog swap. Everyone will leave with a bag full of seeds and loads of gardening inspiration for the upcoming growing season. We will have a “best name-tag” contest, so get crafty.
See event details on pages 20–21 of this issue. Seed Exchange attendees are encouraged to bring their used or new garden books and seed catalogs to swap and share at this year’s event. We also ask you to bring your own water bottle or reusable mug and a home-made nametag.
To enter to win the Seed Exchange Passes, send an email to washingtongardenermagazine@gmail.com by 5:00pm on Thursday, January 30, with “Seed Swap” in the subject line and in the body of the email. Tell us what you will be growing from seed in your garden this year. Please also include your full name and mailing address. The pass winners will be announced and notified on Friday, January 31.
