Seed Saving Intermediate Class w/ BC Seedswomen Maria Hunter & Mojave Kaplan

RSVP here, and then register with Strathcona Community Centre.

Seed Saving Intermediate Class (1-2:30 pm)
The afternoon session is designed to build on and deepen our seed knowledge. Mojave will bring background history and meaning to our group with
stories, and then we will discuss issues of better technique building, record keeping, selection and seed collectives. And bring your questions! We will gather at  least one question per person through a beginning round, and organize and triage to address key areas. We will
cover isolation distance and techniques, and persevering  genetic diversity.
