Many Seedy Saturday and Seedy Sunday events allow for organizations, local businesses, and small scale seed companies to set up display tables as part of the event. Given the opportunity, Seeds of Diversity appreciates having a presence at these gatherings, as they are a wonderful chance to inform thousands of gardeners about our own seedy story, and share information about the importance of preserving our seed heritage. In order to have such a presence, we rely heavily on volunteers to represent us by staffing display tables at dozens of events from coast to coast.

A Couple of Notes:
Our Table and the Seed Exchange Table are normally separate: Our Seedy Saturday and Sunday volunteers promote our organization at our display table. The separate Seed Exchange table, which is the heart of Seedy Saturday events, is normally run by the organizers of the events. However, we appreciate your help with advice and seeds at the Seed Exchange if you choose to assist.
If you are offered an honorarium for speaking on behalf of Seeds of Diversity: Some events offer honoraria for speakers. If you are presenting and receive one we consider it to be yours. If you choose to donate it, we gladly give you a tax receipt.
