Upcoming Workshops
Many of the vegetable varieties we use today have been passed down from generation to generation but many find the art of seed saving difficult, intimidating or time-consuming. This introductory workshop will explore the various parts of the seeds, plant selection, collecting, preparing and storing seeds helping to build confidence in this time-honored aspect of regenerative agriculture.
Find a fun, friendly, hands-on workshop near you and register for the event today.
