Crowd Harvest: Seeds for Christmas

WE ARE ON! Save your seeds for refugees! 18,000 Views via 'likes' and 'shares' on Facebook! Help spread the news further through your accounts and networks! NFPs supporting, enabling and empowering those in need to adopt self sustaining food gardening practices are looking to establish Seed Banks. By a central body establishing a seed bank, people facing difficult circumstances can access the seeds and establish food gardens. Gardeners everywhere harvest more seeds than can be stored, and need to be used before they expire. In this Crowd Harvest, Australian gardeners with excess seeds are invited to send them in a Christmas card or holiday card to one or more NFPs from the list below :-) Each of the NFPs listed below has a certified horticulturalist employed, and ready to look after the seeds, either to start the seeds, store the seeds or distribute to others facing crisis yet know how to start seeds :-) You can be assured the seeds will be looked after. Variety is welcome! Please help share the news by forwarding this email to a friend, or pressing 'like' and 'sharing' on Facebook. A Facebook Group "Tiny Trowellers" has been created.
