The Assiniboine Food Security Alliance (AFSA) is involved in several initiatives besides Grow 'N' Share:
Prairie Sun Seed Festival
An event where people get together to swap seeds especially heirloom varieties, or varieties that have been in the family for years if not several generations. The idea is to conserve heritage varieties of garden and field crops for use by many generations of people. A Seedy Saturday event is a way to bring a large number of people together to share seeds and stories and begin to develop individual and community ability to grow their own food.
