Hi,

I am a visual artist inviting all growers, gardeners and gathers to participate in the setting up of a temporary seed bank in a former Permanent TSB as part of the exhibition Spare Room launching this weekend.

Simply deposit some seeds anytime between Friday 20th September and Friday 4th October 2019 and we will add them to our collection in the vault. At the end of the exhibition, seeds gathered will be donated to Green Spaces for Health (https://www.facebook.com/greenspacescork/)

There are also a number of events taking place in Cork City as part of this project that I thought members of this group might like to get involved in:

The Harvest
A walk, talk and seed harvest with Luke Myers, Cork Nature Network
3-6pm on 22nd September 2019

The Kitchen Table Discussion
