Also a great chance to pass on those free seeds that you didn't want that came with your gardening magazine, or those packets that you bought thinking they were a good idea at the time but will never get around to sowing!
The RFGN seed swap will be at Bean Pole Day in Caversham Court Gardens this Saturday (22nd April). Come and have a rummage through our boxes for something new and different to try out. AND don't forget to bring along your surplus or home harvested seeds to swap.
