20 Foundation Seeds Project

Over 2022, we are working with 20 local communities groups and individuals who have committed to growing one type of plant in order to harvest its seeds for Exeter Seed Bank. They are the ‘Seed Guardians’ for that local seed.

We with funding from the National Lottery Community Fund Awards for All programme, we are providing workshops and other activities for our Seed Guardians.

This Foundation Seed model is used on a larger scale by the South West Seed Saving Co-op.
