Want to save seeds? Join Rebecca Ivanoff – Seed Program Manager at EFAO – as she walks us through knowing what plants to save seed from, when seeds are ready to be harvested, common ways to dry and clean seeds as well as the best ways to store them. Come learn and share your knowledge about how to grow and save seeds from vegetables and herbs so that we have seeds to plant next year that not only tastes great but are adapted to grow well in our community gardens!

Bring your own seeds to show or share with the group and work together to learn how to best clean them for storage.

Speaker: Rebecca Ivanoff, Seed Program Manager, EFAO

This in-person workshop is part of the Ignatius Farm New Farmer Training Program – a collaboration between Ignatius Jesuit Centre, EFAO, Everdale and the National Farmers Union – Ontario.
