 The 12th annual Appalachian Heritage Seed Swap is returning to Pikeville Saturday, April 6 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The event will be held at Pike Central and is free to attend and will feature a variety of vegetable, fruit and flowering seeds. We have one of the largest ones in the nation. We have usually people from seven or eight states and we also have people from Canada. In the past we've even had people from Florida and California. Seed saving people are fanatics and they will drive a long way to get some heirloom seed and try to work things out. We've also got several of our farmers, market people that will have vegetables for sale and seed and plants and a little bit of everything. Hillbilly Hammock Weekend of Destruction, demolition derbies are coming to Pikeville Friday, Saturday, March 29th and 30th, 7 a.m. each night. Appalachian Wireless Arena, Pikeville, it's going to be a crashing good time, be there. In addition to having seeds for purchase, free seed giveaways and seedlings, the extension will be leading a variety of trainings and hosting special speakers. Well a lot of these heirlooms are local and we have some from Tennessee, from here in Pike County and different areas and during the flooding and everything a lot of areas will host them and it's hard to find these antique seed. Most of them are heirlooms that have been around for generations and they're all fresh and they've got them ready to go. The ones that have them and everything, as I said, the farmers market and we have always have several people from all over the country that bring seed to trade and sell and swap and everything.
