Thank you to everyone who showed up, shared, swapped, and helped make our Seed Swap at the Original Collard Greens Cultural Fest®️ a beautiful reminder of what community can grow. 🌱

Seeds are more than something we plant. They carry culture, knowledge, biodiversity, and the power to grow food on our own terms.

From heirloom varieties to growing tips passed from hand to hand, every exchange was an investment in keeping these traditions alive.

Thank you to Chris Lemons of Gratitude Botanical Farm for helping bring this gathering to life and to everyone who came ready to share what they had and take home something new.

This is what it looks like to grow together. 🌱

Why do we need seed swaps?🌱

Because our food system should not depend on having access to the same few seeds, from the same few sources.

Seed swapping helps communities preserve heirloom varieties, increase biodiversity, share culturally significant crops, and keep the knowledge of growing food alive and moving from hand to hand.

This September 27, come exchange more than seeds.
Join Chris Lemons of Gratitude Botanical Farm for a community Seed Swap at the Original Collard Greens Cultural Fest®️ !

Bring what you have. Take what you can grow. Share what you know.

September 27, 1 PM to 3 PM
Hillside International Truth Center, Atlanta

Bring the whole family out this Saturday! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🌱

The Original Collard Greens Cultural Festival is almost here, and we’ve got two ways for your family to play, learn, and grow together at the Sustainability Pavilion!

Children’s Waste Relay ♻️
Kids, pick your favorite grown-up as your teammate! Together you’ll race to sort real recyclables, like plastic bottles, cardboard, and cans, into the right bins. But watch out, by the final round on stage, the roles flip: the kids become the coaches, guiding their adults through the sort in front of the whole crowd. It’s silly, it’s sweet, and it teaches the whole family how to recycle right.

WE WILL ALSO HAVE Seed Bingo 🎯
Grab a card and test your knowledge with three levels of play, from seeds you already eat every day, to trickier rounds, to a level where you can even use your phone for help. Everyone from the littlest ones to the grown-ups can play, and there are prizes up for grabs!
