  9. These BlackCherry Punch girls are coming down next weekend.
    The buds are covered in frost, the colours are changing, and the room smells incredible. It's always exciting watching a crop reach the finish line after months of work.
    One more week. 🌿🍒

  11. Pick your ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, and chillies often! Regular harvesting encourages plants to keep producing more fruit. Don’t let them sit too long—your garden rewards you with more when you stay on top of the harvest. 🌶🍅🥒 #GardeningTips #HomeGarden #HarvestTime

  27. So yeah, I had a successful crop of #RainbowChard that started out as teeny tiny seedlings from a local farm. I decided to start a second crop in late August, and the plants are getting pretty big! Since the enclosed porch isn't insulated, at some point, I'll have to harvest them (I have enough indoor plants to deal with). But thanks to @keira_reckons and @MaQuest I know what to do with the stems once I harvest them -- pickle them!

    "Why Save Seeds?

    Have you ever tried to save seeds from your crops? While the topic may seem daunting, anyone can do it! Not only is seed saving practical, it’s also very rewarding and essential for biodiversity preservation.

    Why save seeds?

    - You increase your #SelfReliance.
    - You connect to nature and your food.
    - You save money on future seeds.
    - You establish ties to history.
    - You adapt varieties to your local climate.
    - Saved seeds make great personal gifts.
    - You help preserve #biodiversity.
    - You join a unique and large community of seed savers!

    Seed Saving at Seed Savers Exchange

    Saving seeds is integral to our mission at Seed Savers Exchange. It’s right there in our name! At our Heritage Farm headquarters, we steward a living collection of over 20,000 different varieties of seed crops, potatoes, garlic, grapes, and apples. Learn more about preservation at SSE.

    There is inherent value in all of the seeds we work to protect. Some of the plants we preserve have a strong cultural history. Others possess unique culinary properties, and others display resilience to climatic events or invasive pests. Read seed stories from the collection.
    Rows of large metal shelves full of boxes with many seed packets
    The seed bank at Heritage Farm

    By saving your own seeds, you play an important part in carrying out our collective mission. It’s up to all of us to lend a hand by saving and sharing seeds. Other ways to support SSE.

    You don’t have to save seeds alone! By saving seeds, you join a community of countless other gardeners with similar interests. SSE facilitates the largest free seed swap between home gardeners like yourself. Through the Exchange, gardeners can request seeds from other gardeners, and list their own to share!"

    Saving seeds also gives you a special opportunity to make an impact in your own community. Join or start a local #SeedLibrary, attend or host a #seedswap and connect with local gardeners!

    Through the Community Seed Network, co-created by SSE, you can connect with other gardeners. You will also find extensive resources on creative ways to share seeds within your community."

    How to Save Seeds: Seed Saving for Beginners

    "Why you should save seeds

    1. First of all, learning how to save seeds allows you to take one more step toward self-sufficiency. By saving seeds, you’ll be able to produce your own seed and stop relying on outside sources to provide seed for you (plus, you’ll save money too).

    2. Second, saving seeds from your healthiest, most robust, most productive plants and replanting them year after year means you’ll create your own strain of healthy seeds that are specially adapted and optimized for your specific environment, which tends to mean higher germination rates, bigger harvests and less disease.

    3. Finally, saving seeds allows you a unique opportunity to create your own heirloom seeds to pass down through generations in your family. By handing down family heirloom seeds, you’ll be passing on a legacy and gifting future generations with the gift of self-sufficiency. How cool is that??

    But before you start saving seeds, there are a few things you need to know to ensure the seeds you’re saving are actually viable."
