West Shore Seedy Saturday

West Shore Seedy Saturday organizers are eager to again work together with farmers, seed vendors, gardeners, and community groups to co-create a Seedy Saturday event, which reflects the vibe of a rapidly growing area, teeming with young families and active seniors looking to save money and do their part to shift to more sustainable ways. In this second annual offering, we’re adding more space for exhibitors and will have a separate space for speakers throughout the day. We are again expecting to see a mixed audience of largely newbie or novice growers together with some Seedy Saturday veterans, and since we had such wonderful feedback on the location last year, we’ve secured the Learning Commons at Belmont Secondary School again as our venue! The location is accessible with plenty of parking and within easy walking distance for many residents, and the event space is beautiful and modern with a large amount of natural light. It will be a terrific space for people to browse seed selections, chat with knowledgeable folks, and ask lots of questions. We have a limited amount of covered outdoor exhibit spaces for plant starts and such, so if you are interested in taking advantage of this opportunity, we encourage you to complete the Exhibitor Application Form as soon as possible. Last year, we helped Belmont Secondary School with building their own Seed Library, and we are looking forward to working with students and teachers to grow this relationship in 2025! Belmont is already working with Matthew Kemshaw and the Flourish! School Food Society, our Seedy Saturday event partners. If you are interested in exhibiting or vending, please read the following Exhibitor Information, and complete the application form below. This event seeks to support local seed exchange and small-scale local seed growers; therefore, we ask that all exhibitors adhere to the conditions outlined below.
