Event Details

Beginning in the latter part of the 20th century, there has been a major shift to purchasing seed from commercial seed suppliers.  This shift is leading to a reduction in North America's diverse garden heritage for future generations.  This presentation will cover what seeds are, pollination, and the difference between heirlooms & pollinated seeds.  Participants will learn the basics needed to save their own seeds so that they too may reap the exciting benefits the original seed savers did.
