Seed Library Packing and Twine Making Workshop

Sylvia will demonstrate how everyday plants can be transformed into useful and beautiful woven pieces before guiding participants through making natural twine from a banana trunk. This versatile twine can be used in the garden to support plants, for creative projects, or to wrap a special gift. Alongside the workshop, participants will help pack and label seeds for the Lake Mac Seed Library, supporting biodiversity, local food resilience and community seed sharing. ☕ A relaxed, social morning — creativity, conversation and curiosity encouraged.
