Located on Pelee Island, Swallow Haven Farm sells seeds as well as native and non-native plants. They guarantee locally sourced plant material that is ethically acquired as well as non-invasive. Find out more about their seed saving techniques and challenges in this session with farmer John Ambrose. Participants will be sent a pre-recorded video and then join us for a live discussion, question and answer session.

 

This event is offered as part of the Ignatius Farm New Farmer Training Program. Educational content is geared toward new farmers, but is open to all farmers who might be curious about a certain topic, wishing to expand their farming knowledge, or in need of a refresh.

 

Anyone wishing to attend the full Term 3 can register here. Registering for Term 3 does not require you to register for each individual session.

 

In order to make our training and community building events accessible to all farmers (and future farmers) in Ontario, the Ignatius New Farmer Training Program strives to cover registration fees for anyone facing financial barriers. Need assistance covering the registration fee? Let us know!
