We are delighted to announce that the annual Seedy Sunday event will be held in the Aden Country Park polytunnels on Sunday 1st March from 11am to 3.30pm. The event will offer a range of activities including our seed swap table, free seed potato giveaway by One Seed Forward, food vendors, craft, gift and plant stalls (see below for details), along with a range of children activities by both the Aberdeenshire Ranger Service and Peterhead Community Council Greenspace Champions, coupled with information and displays on how to prevent food waste, save water, along with recipe cards and related giveaways.

Aberdeenshire Ranger Service activities will be held in the Ranger Cabin (just beside the plant nursery) including:

Pollinator Pots – Get hands-on and help nature thrive! Decorate your own plant pot and sow pollinator-friendly seeds to take home and grow. Learn how simple planting choices can support bees, butterflies and other important insects, perfect for all ages and no gardening experience needed.

Seed Detective Table – Become a Seed Detective! Explore a fascinating collection of seeds and discover how plants travel, grow and survive. Use magnifiers to investigate shapes and textures, and match seeds to the plants they come from in this fun, family-friendly nature challenge.

Along with the food vendors, stalls include: shrubs and plants, homemade jams and chutneys, botanical soaps, floral wreaths and decorations, handmade stoneware pottery, Fairtrade goods, dark chocolate treats, Cacti and 3D printed pots, delicious loose leaf teas, beautiful local honey, goat milk soaps, lotions and balm, natural dog treats for our four legged friends (who are more than welcome at the event), along with Friends of Aden craft and gifts, and the Aden Picture Framing.

Entry to the poly tunnels is £2.00 per adult – children under 16’s are free.  Entry is cash only but the stall holders will have card payment facilities.
