Are any of our KG members Seed Guardians, or know of anyone who is? This is someone who grows and saves seeds of older varieties for Heritage Seed library. Would be interested to hear of their experience of this.

I used to be a seed guardian up to a couple of years ago when I had to give up the allotment. I used to guard a dwarf french bean called 'Black Valentine'.
It's great fun to do - very worthwhile. It doesn't need guarding any more so I guess my efforts must have made a bit of difference.
