Events
Seed Swap, Potluck, & Story Share
Plants and people have a special relationship through time, and seeds symbolize the stories of that relationship.
At our Seed Swap, people bring seeds for the seed table and family dishes for the potluck. Then, we share stories and memories about seeds and/or plants that have been passed down in our families for generations.
This year our 2023 Seed Swap will be held on Sunday February 12th in Puyallup at the Pioneer Park Pavilion from 12 pm - 3 pm.
If you plan on attending please take a moment to REGISTER FOR THE EVENT HERE. We'll be providing more details as the date approaches, so be on the lookout for additional information. We hope to see you there!

We draw upon local talent and knowledge throughout Pierce County for the wide breadth of community offerings, demonstrations, and talks available during this event. Come learn gardening techniques, fruit tree education, and build community development skills and interdependence.
The event includes a free lunch as well as many giveaways including plant starts, seeds, and much more.
