A community group to support local seed saving, growing and education!

The Mongolian giant sunflower is our community grow out plant for 2026. Now that you picked up your free pack of seeds (in exchange for your commitment and feedback in your grow out report) - let’s grow sunflowers together!
Get your seeds in the ground now if you haven't already ⌚
FYI If people wanted to grow sunflowers, but only had pots or patio space, we gave them Teddy bear sunflower seeds. They grow up to 3 feet.
