The Unico Community Centre in Kingsville was abuzz with those of a green thumb persuasion for the Kingsville Horticultural Society’s annual Seedy Saturday event on Saturday, March 22. The gathering included six local garden vendors, master gardeners on hand to answer questions, a kids’ craft zone and a seed exchange table that served as the event’s main purpose. Kingsville Horticultural Society President Annette Cooper shared that the event served not only as a fundraising vehicle for their organization, but also encouraged community members to find their own ways to use flora to beautify the town. The Society is now planning for its next events — a Plant Sale on May 10 and a Vintage Garden Tour & Tea on both June 21 and 22.
