SEED SWAP!
Thursday, February 20 from 5:30-7pm
Jenny Sanders and Teddy Redding, members of the Wachusett Garden Club, are hosting an informal seed swap at the Princeton Library (program room downstairs) on Thursday, February 20 from 5:30-7pm.
Stop by with any vegetable, herb, or flower seeds you don’t plan to use this year. We’ll have a table where people can set out their seeds and see what others have brought. You may find something new to try in your garden! Seeds can be commercial or homegrown. We ask that you bring seeds in packets labeled with their type, variety, and approximate date collected, but we’ll have extra packets if you need them.
We hope to see you at this informal neighborly swap! This event is free and open to the public, so bring a friend.

The Thomas Prince School Pollinator Garden, Lisa’s Pollinator Garden, in loving memory of Lisa Beaupre, a former TPS Kindergarten Teacher, is being moved from its hidden location behind the baseball field, to the west side of the TPS building.
We're also pleased to report that this program received a $500 grant from Wild Ones which will be used to buy native plants for the garden. Of note is that the TPS program is the only grant awarded
