Seedy Sunday

Providing education about techniques for seed-saving, small-scale agriculture and horticulture, and about local, national and international laws that affect public-domain crop plants can also be an important part of the event.

[1] The first Seedy Saturday was held at VanDusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver, Canada, in 1990.

The idea of conserving heritage varieties of garden and field crops was in its infancy in Canada in 1989.

It was very difficult to find heritage varieties of vegetables, fruits, flowers and grains.

[3] In Canada, Seedy Saturdays and Seed Sundays continue to be locally or regionally organized events.
