Qualicum Beach Seedy Saturday

Some Swedish red pea's have been saved and are destined for our seed swap in February!
This was grown from a small packet of seed in a 2x3ft space, the first pods were enjoyed on the plate, and the rest saved to multiply the seed for next year's growing season.
Swedish red pea also known as biskopens or bishops grey, can be eaten young and tender or saved for a dried soup pea. And of course, an heirloom to grow again and again.

What seeds are you saving this year?

Delivered SEA SOIL and a cheque to Parksville Museum on Saturday, got a tour of the yard and what they have been up to. This beautiful pollinator hotel is quite the addition. Can't wait to visit again in the summer and see all the activity.

If you would like to volunteer and have the pleasure of tending the gardens here, visit their website: https://parksvillemuseum.com/ or contact Pam [email protected]

Our Seed Map has been updated for 2026! We created this map four years ago to showcase the Canadian seed suppliers found in the Seed Finder in a way that lets users easily find those in their area.

Seed Map: seeds.ca/seedmap
Seed Finder*: seeds.ca/seedfinder

* The Seed Finder is the perfect tool for sourcing specific varieties of food plants. You can search by species, variety, region, certified organic, and bulk. We are in the process of updating it fully for 2026!
