MnSEED Seed Collection event at Gibbs Farm August 27th

Another chance to brush up on seed harvesting skills with MnSEED!

SATURDAY, August 27th AT 9 AM – 11 AM
Gibbs Farm: Pathways to Dakota & Pioneer Life

MnSEED is offering a series of seed saving events in 2022 that provide opportunities to collect, process, and learn about native plants & their seeds! Join MnSEED community in gathering locally adapted seeds from area native plants for purposes of sharing back through swaps, distributions and events. Learn seed saving practices to help ensure viable seeds that come true to plant type. Participants will learn from each other and have the opportunity to save seeds for themselves.

Seed harvesting events will involve identifying natives, checking to be sure seeds are mature, collecting seedheads, and properly documenting the collected plants. We will also cover seed storage practices, and preview how seed cleaning is done. Project information and resources are here: https://northerngardener.org/mn-seed-project/
