North Edinburgh Community Seed Saving Initiative (Third Meeting)

This is the third meeting of the new North Edinburgh Community Seed Saving Initiative. It’s open to anyone in North Edinburgh who is saving seed or interested in saving seed. Come along and share your seeds and your seed saving experience, or come along with no experience but a willingness to learn.

There’s an opportunity to get involved in community seed saving currently focused on soup peas and beetroot (and tomatoes). Or to share with others your own seed saving plans.

We will have hot drinks and biscuits to help the conversation along! Feel free to bring seeds for sharing.

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 contact us if you have any access requests or questions.
