Are you feeling it?

Do you have seeds from past years and want to know if they will grow this year? You can do a wet paper towel germination test to help you determine if your seeds are still viable.

We have some sunflower seeds from 2023 that we wanted to check for viability. The process was quick and easy. To learn how, check out the UAF Cooperative Extension Service publication “Procedures for the Wet Paper Towel Germination Test”. Check it out here: https://www.uaf.edu/ces/publications/database/gardening/procedures-wet-towel-germ.php 🌻

😁 And if you want to try something new in your garden this summer but don’t have seeds at home, come to our Seed Swap event this Friday and Saturday and bring seeds/ take seeds! The Seed Swap hours and details are below.
