Stroud Community Seed Bank is passionate about bringing back varieties of fruit and vegetables that have been forgotten due to the rise of large scale agriculture. They provide seeds to the local community in exchange for donations in the hope that these lost treasures can be revived.

Would you love to grow your own vegetables but don't know where to start? Are you an experienced fruit grower but want to know how to look after your soil? Whether you are a total beginner with a few pots or a market gardener with a field, this talk will give you the knowledge you need to become a more confident gardener.

This is the first of a series of talks hosted by NailsworthCAN with individuals and organisations who are creating positive change in our community and to open up the conversation with the hope of inspiring others. Tom talked to us about why The Long Table was founded and what they bring to the community, including the wonderfully named ‘freezers of love.’
