North Edinburgh Community Seed-Saving Initiative – First Meeting

November 21 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
The title 'our seeds' in white on a green background, with the strapline 'all seeds are migrants, every seed has story' underneath on a light brown background. Below that, in green on a white background, the words: Find out more about this... 'our seeds' event

This will be the first meeting to discuss setting up a seed-saving community in North Edinburgh. We are looking to gather a group who are interested in saving seeds, sharing seeds and swapping seed stories. As it’s the first meeting, it would just be great to share experience (none is necessary to join), what seeds you have saved, what you would like to save, and any seeds that you would like to share.

We will have hot drinks and biscuits to help the conversation along!

Please email lisa@lauristonfarm.org if you would like to join on this date or at a future date.

We will meet in the Welcome portacabin in the farmyard (EH4 5EX)

As it’s a small indoor space, this meet up is not suitable for bringing pet dogs.

Access Notes

There is one step up into the portacabin. It is a rough compacted stone path from the Toby Carvery car park. The cabin is set on rough grass, just off this path. This will be an informal and chatty gathering, in a relatively small space. We don’t have microphones. There is some background noise from passers by and planes overhead.

Assistance dogs welcome of course.

There is a spacious, level access, single cubicle, gender neutral toilet in the Community Allotments that participants can use. This is on rough grassy ground, no steps.

There is no on-farm parking, but we can make arrangements for disabled people who need to drive in for access reasons.

Please email lisa@lauristonfarm.org if you have any access requests or questions.
