Spring Mill State Park hosting heirloom plant and seed exchange, April 27 - FishNews - 05-02-2008
Spring Mill State Park hosts its annual heirloom plant and seed exchange SundayApril 27, from 1 to 5 p.m. Park visitors are invited to bring their heirloom plants or seeds to the pioneer village to trade them for seedlings grown in the pioneer garden.
<br>An heirloom plant is a plant variety that has been cultivated at least 50 years, and open pollinated, so that seeds from the plant, when planted, come back true to the original plant.<br>
<br>"Many area residents look forward to our exchange. It's a unique opportunity for visitors to take home heirloom plants from the village gardens," said Spring Mill volunteer coordinator Coletta Prewitt.<br>
<br>If you have a large garden and oodles of plants to trade, call ahead and the park will set a table up for you.<br>
<br>Don't have anything to trade? The village gardener will have plants from the formal garden for sale at the Pioneer Village Mercantile.<br>
<br>The park entrance fee is $5 per vehicle for Indiana residents and $7 per vehicle for out of state residents.<br>
<br>For questions about the heirloom exchange call Coletta Prewitt at (812) 849-4129.
