Seed Saving Workshops for Farmers and Gardeners!
Discover the importance of saving seeds in this hands-on workshop! Learn about all aspects of seed saving: how to collect, clean, dry, and store seeds from Chris Smith of the Utopian Seed Project. We will have two sessions, one focused of seed production for farmers (this is a great way to diversify your income as a farmer!) and the other focused for saving seeds for backyard gardeners. You'll leave with practical skills, helpful resources, and the confidence to save seeds for future growing seasons!
Join ARC&D and Utopian Seed Project for 2 different workshops on Thursday, October 8th!
9:30am-12pm (with lunch to follow)- Seed Farming 101: Economics and Production
