In order to maintain plant diversity, the urban gardeners of 'Ab geht die Lucie' organise a seed exchange for you every year. You bring your seeds with you and they are collected on a table. You can then take some of the seeds that others have brought with you in small, homemade bags. The swap meet takes place every year at a different location in Bremen.

Am Wall 212 (Mitte)
Just in time for the beginning of spring, the green space in front of the mill on the Wallanlagen is transformed into a colourful sea of flowers. Orange, lilac, yellow and white horned violets and other spring plants blossom in the ramparts just in time for Easter. With the change to summer flower planting, there is a great opportunity for you every year: at the end of May, the Umweltbetrieb Bremen will give away the spring plants to you. You can then dig them up yourself. Before that, however, digging up the flowers is forbidden!
