Seed and Scion

February 23, 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Our annual Seed and Scion Exchange is a unique event celebrating nature’s diversity and how we can work together to diversify our own gardens. Whether you’re an experienced gardener or new to growing, this event offers a fun opportunity to exchange seeds, scions (cuttings), and gardening knowledge with fellow plant enthusiasts. Come explore the rich variety of seeds and scions – common contributions include herbs, veggies, annuals, perennials, and more. Plus, you’ll connect with a community dedicated to sustainable gardening and helping one another succeed. This year we are partnering with Georgia Native Plant Society to especially promote our native species – come learn about when and how to grow natives! Wylde Center merchandise will be available for purchase. 

Mark your calendars, and don’t miss this annual celebration of biodiversity, sustainability, and community!

Location:

The event will be at the old dairy barn at Decatur Legacy Park. The barn is located in front of the pond. The trail to the barn is uneven and can be muddy, so please wear appropriate footwear for a short walk. Everyone is welcome at this event. Transportation accommodations are available upon request. Please contact development@wyldecenter.org for more information.

A Decatur Legacy Park map and parking information can be found HERE.

Parking:

Parking is available a short walk from the barn entrance (see map). If you have items to drop off, you can pull up to the barn entrance for that purpose. Please be respectful of others that need to unload as well. We will have volunteers and staff that can help quickly unload, so that you can move your car to the designated parking area and allow others access to the driveway while you set up.
