Beth Patridge Meeting Room

Celebrate National Gardening Month and our All Alexandria Reads "Brave the Wild River" book choice by swapping and learning about plants with your neighbors!

Do you love plants and want to grow your collection? Or are you looking to start your indoor garden? Swap plants with neighbors and create a seed bomb - a ball of clay filled with wild seeds which will break open as the seeds begin to germinate when planted and rained upon.  

🌱 Please bring your plants, cuttings, and seeds to exchange. Plants must be healthy and pest free - bonus points for local! 🌱
