  • Seed Cleaning Volunteer Day

    Bartram’s Garden 5400 Lindbergh Blvd., Philadelphia, United States

    Join Us for Seed Cleaning at Bartram’s Garden! Help our gardeners prepare for next spring by cleaning last season’s seed harvest. You’ll learn traditional techniques like hand-threshing and winnowing to separate seeds from chaff, making them ready for storage and sowing. Volunteers will also pack seeds into envelopes for sale in the Welcome Center. Seed cleaning is a relaxing, family-friendly activity—usually done seated at a table, chatting with neighbors. Registered volunteers will meet at the Coach House promptly at 9:30 AM. Come for the whole day or just an hour or two. Staff will provide instructions, safety protocols, tools and dust
