Marco has been a seed buddy since October 2016 and has been inspiring the community around the St Luke’s Community Centre in Islington about the importance of seed saving.

– The importance of the ancient practice of saving seeds

– The difference between plant families, species and varieties. What is a hybrid?

– Seed saving practical session

The workshop is open to everyone and no prior gardening experience is required.
