Let us know you're coming!

* In the event of severe weather, the Seed Swap & Scion Exchange will be postponed to the following Sunday, April 5 from 12-4 pm.

"Gardeners and orchardists are invited to bring their #seeds, #scionwood and #cuttings to share. If you don’t have any, come anyway! There is always plenty of seeds and scion to go around.

If you’ve been to the event before, you know that space can get tight at the start of the event. We encourage folks to join the event later in the day — we promise, there are still plenty of seeds and scions available over the duration of the event!

Community members and local seed #growers regularly bring an incredible variety of #vegetable, #fruit, #flower, and #herb seeds. We also regularly have over 150+ types of scionwood to share, including scionwood sourced from MOFGA’s orchards. We will also have limited quantities of #rootstock for sale. Custom #grafting is available by donation to the #MaineHeritageOrchard.

Other items for sharing are welcome such as plants, cuttings, #seedlings, hatching eggs, #kombucha and #YogurtStarters, #salves and other homemade items.

The day’s offerings also include #gardening and #orcharding workshops and demonstrations. Our full list of educational offerings for the day is coming soon!"

7 Houseplants You Can Grow from Cuttings in November

If you think the growing season ends with summer, think again. November is actually one of the best months to propagate houseplants from cuttings - especially those that thrive indoors.

Propagation in late autumn allows plants to develop strong root systems during winter, so they can burst into healthy, vibrant growth come spring. And the best part? You don’t need any special equipment - just a few healthy parent plants, clean scissors, and a bit of patience. Why November

I don't buy many #plants. I make new ones through #cuttings or (rarely) seeds. This week I divided my most recent purchase, a Zanzibar Gem from a few months ago into four separate plants, and I am very proud of the results.
