OUR GIVEAWAYS
*173 groups and counting!*
During the first Covid-19 lockdown, we gave away over 10,000 packets of wildflower seeds to good causes in Scotland. Here's the full story.
When we became a permanent social enterprise, we committed to spending 10% of all funds received on running more seed giveaways.
So for example - if you spend £10 in our online shop, £1 of that will go straight into our giveaway fund.
Our giveaway programme now has two strands:
1. If groups would like wildflower seeds, we usually donate seed from our own core stock.
2. If groups would like vegetable or herb seeds, we usually match them up with seeds donated via our seed amnesty project.
Wondering whether we've been able to help a group near you? Take a look at the list below, broken down by local council area.
And if you're a good cause who would like to receive a seed donation from us, email us at hello@seedsofhope.scot and tell us about your project.
