\nC\u2019est \u00e0 Bruxelles, sa ville natale, que Giada Seghers a d\u00e9marr\u00e9 le projet SEEDS en 2015. \u00ab Je cherchais une Pilea. Cela peut sembler bizarre tant on la voit partout aujourd\u2019hui, mais \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9poque elle \u00e9tait vraiment difficile \u00e0 trouver ! Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 Instagram, j\u2019avais rep\u00e9r\u00e9 une artiste locale qui en poss\u00e9dait une et l\u2019ai contact\u00e9 pour lui proposer un \u00e9change de boutures. C\u2019est de l\u00e0 qu\u2019est n\u00e9e l\u2019envie d\u2019organiser des PLANT SWAP et que s\u2019est progressivement b\u00e2tie la communaut\u00e9 SEEDS. \u00bb

\n<\/i><\/span>It\u2019s in her Brussels hometown that Giada Seghers started the SEEDS project in 2015. “I was looking for a Pilea plant. It might sound strange because nowadays you see them everywhere, but at the time they were really hard to find! Thanks to Instagram I spotted a local artist who had one and contacted her to offer a cuttings exchange. That’s when the desire to organise PLANT SWAPs was born and the SEEDS communit\u00fd was gradually built.”<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t![\"\"](\"https:\/\/bacsac.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/IMG_1452-1160x1547.jpeg\")

\n\u00c9ducatrice nature Montessori<\/span>, Giada vit aujourd\u2019hui \u00e0 Paris o\u00f9 elle a<\/span>nime des ateliers cr\u00e9atifs pour faire d\u00e9couvrir le monde du vivant aux enfants. <\/span>Dans son appartement inond\u00e9 de lumi\u00e8re, s\u2019\u00e9panouissent une multitude de plantes et autant d\u2019histoires de transmission. \u00ab Faire grandir une plante depuis la graine, le noyau ou la bouture est un acte simple et gratuit, a\u0300 contre-courant d\u2019achat de plantes a\u0300 bas prix et sans histoire. \u00c9changer est un acte d\u2019autant plus fort qu\u2019il cr\u00e9e une chaine de transmission. Lors des PLANT SWAP, chaque donateur remplit une \u00e9tiquette avec son nom, son contact, le nom de la plante et des conseils ou anecdotes ! \u00bb

\nA Montessori nature educator, Giada now lives in Paris where she runs creative workshops to help children learn about life sciences. Her sunlit flat is filled with a multitude of thriving\u00a0 <\/span>plants, each with their own story of transmission. “Growing a plant from a seed, stone or cutting is a simple and free act, quite the opposite of buying cheap plants that have no history. Swapping them is a powerful act, especially since it creates a chain of transmission. During PLANT SWAPs, each person who donates writes their name, contact details, the name of the plant and advice or anecdotes on the label!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n\u00ab J\u2019aime bouturer dans l\u2019eau car, au-del\u00e0 d\u2019\u00eatre la m\u00e9thode la plus simple, je trouve fascinant de suivre l\u2019\u00e9volution des racines avant de les mettre en terre. Bien souvent, les gens ach\u00e8tent des plantes d\u00e9j\u00e0 grandes et rempot\u00e9es, ce qui est dommage car on passe \u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9 de tout un incroyable processus de croissance de la plante, o\u00f9 l\u2019invisible devient visible. \u00bb<\/i><\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n\u2013
\n<\/i><\/span><\/i><\/i>“I like to grow cuttings in water because, apart from it being the simplest method, I find it fascinating to watch the evolution of the roots before putting them in the ground. Very often, people buy plants that are already large and repotted, which is a pity because you miss out on the incredible process of the plant’s growth \u2013 that moment when the invisible becomes visible.”<\/i><\/i><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t![\"\"](\"https:\/\/bacsac.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/L1010638-scaled.jpg\")
