Wednesday, September 5, 6 pm - 9 pm
Marisha's Home, Woodstock Neighborhood, Portland, OR

Cost $30, includes seeds

Seedsaving gives us the unique opportunity to dance with life and play a distinct role in our nourishment. We can nurture plants for the special qualities that sustain us in uncertain futures. As corporations attempt to take control of our genetic diversity, seed saving becomes an important political act. Come join us to learn how you can take responsibility for your own food supply by saving your own seed from your garden. We will be discussing harvest of cultivated and native seeds as well as flowers and vegetable crops. Seed saving is a great localized buffer against the globalization of our food supply as it encourages diversity & increases the resilience in our gardens to pests and diseases.

This workshop is a hands-on opportunity to actively learn how to harvest seed. Each participant will go home with some seeds for their own garden.
