Fall is here and the gardening season is almost over - but there's still time to pick up a few new skills in the realm of food preservation, harvesting scion wood, and protecting your biennial plants for winter storage.
In this fall 3-day workshop you will learn about the seed industry and the tradition of sharing seed. We will teach technical skills like hand-pollination and seed processing, as well as the biological and ecological concepts of seed saving.
The best way to learn what vegetable varieties to grow is to trial a few for yourself! Come sample rare varieties found only in SSE’s seed bank, and many others you can easily get through SSE’s Online Exchange or Commercial catalog.
