Seeds, bedding plants and gardening resources will be available at a gardening show later this month.
Summerland Seedy Saturday will be held at the IOOF Hall on Main Street on Saturday, March 28 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
It will feature seeds from five independent, organic seed growers, bedding plants and gardening books and information.
In addition, vendors will also have honey, organic juices, artisan cheeses, locally grown produce and more.
Laurel Burnham, organizer of the Seedy Saturday event, said there is a renewed interest in gardening and food.
“There’s a real interest in growing our own food,” she said.
“People don’t want to lose our genetic viability.”
While Seedy Saturday events have been held in other communities, this is the first time it will be in Summerland.
Burnham said the sale will raise funds for Okanagan Upcycle ReSource Society, which resells discarded building supplies.
