This year, our little community gardens will be planted with sunflowers.....lots and lots of sunflowers.
I've been collecting sunflowers from other seed savers across Canada getting ready for summer,
and have received an abundance of varieties.
There is enough for everyone in the hamlet to grow sunflowers.
If you live in the hamlet and would like some seeds for your garden, click on the choices below of whatever you would like to try, and I will drop you off an envelope.
Maybe you would like to plant your own seeds, or aren't right in the hamlet.
That would be great as well.
Most garden seed suppliers are donating proceeds from sunflower seed sales this year to the humanitarian effort as part of the Sunflowers for Ukraine project. You can see which seed suppliers are participating and more about the project in the link below
Either way, let's just take lots of photos to send in for the "Sunflowers for Ukraine" Project that our hamlet is now registered with to show our support.
