Seed saving

Saving seed to use next year is fun and it means you can grow plants and crops for free next season! 
We have let quite a few of our flowers and vegetable plants 'go to seed' so that we can collect the seeds in envelopes to use next year.

We collected artichoke heads....  


...runner bean seeds....





....and lots of flower seed heads like these sunflowers.




Then we counted the seeds and put them in envelopes. We drew pictures on the envelopes and added their names, along with instructions on when to plant them.
