Seedsaving for Beginners and Equinox Seed Swap
Mar 22, 9:30 AM - 3:00 PM CT
North Branch, MN | Women’s Environmental Institute | $
All the foods we eat came from somewhere and the seed is where it all begins. Join Clint Freund of Cultivating the Commons to explore this lost relationship and find out more about the plants we love in our gardens! Learn the basics of seed saving from your home garden or farm. Clint will cover all aspects including seed selection, growing plants, seed collection, and storage. Bring your questions regarding plants from which you would like to save seed. Learn how to stomp (wear your tennis shoes!) and winnow seed. After class, we’ll have a seed swap and share a potluck meal to celebrate seeds and the spring equinox. Wear comfortable shoes and ideas about your favorite garden vegetable you love to eat and grow.
