Take a moment to think about all of the paper that is thrown out or recycled on any given day — it can really add up. Imagine if you could make a notecard, gift tag, recipe card or gift for someone you love that would grow into delicious vegetables for them to eat. Seed paper takes reusing and recycling one step further to help create a whole new thing — a plant!

Join Tarrant Area Food Bank's Community Garden program for this fun, family-friendly event. Families with children ages 5 and older are invited to attend. Take a little time to relax in our community garden and learn how to make seed paper that can be planted to grow your own vegetables, herbs and flowers.  

Those interested in participating can look forward to the following:

• Tour of TAFB Learning Garden
• A family-friendly discussion about what plants need to grow and thrive
• Hands-on Activity: Make-your-own plantable seed paper
• Giveaways: Take home seeds and seed paper to plant in your garden or give to a friend

Weather permitting, this event will take place outdoors. We suggest wearing layers of weather-appropriate clothing that you do not mind getting dirty and boots or athletic shoes.

All children must be accompanied by an adult.
