ZMAG’s Community Seed Bank is pleased to invite you to another edition of GARDENING GATHERINGS, a new thematic event that combines educational talks and a seed exchange.
Gardening Gatherings are public events, open to everyone interested in gardening, seed saving, and growing food. The goal of these gatherings is to connect the local gardening community and enable the exchange of seeds and knowledge.
This edition of Gardening Gatherings will take place at the Community Hall in Milna on the island of Hvar. Whether you are a beginner, an experienced gardener, or have not yet started a garden or even a pot plant, come and join us. We would love to hear your questions and experiences and to learn about your gardens.
