Resources

The resources content on this site is primarily organised into six main components –

• The map showing where Australian seed Saving groups are located
• The events we hold mainly as Zoom meetups currently around 4 times a year
• Helpful Information on starting your own seed saving group
• Tips for how to start seed saving
• Technical methods involved in Seed Saving
• Specific seed saving information about saving seeds from commonly grown plant families

You can search for any current content here. Select ‘Resources’ to only search within the plant notes.

This area is currently under redevelopment. We are hoping to have guides available for many different commonly grown (mainly) edible plants and varieties that are grown in Australian Gardens.

Thanks for your patience. (03/08/25)
