About the event
We are excited to announce a series of farm visits to our local native seed farmers! They are integral partners in our restoration projects. These tours are designed to educate new and curious growers on what it takes to start native seed production from scratch, including site preparation, water infrastructure, and the economic viability of native seed production as a business. Additionally, these tours will be instructive for existing seed growers who are interested in transitioning to native seed production. Each visit will include a guided tour of the farm, discussions with the farmers, and an overview of the specific native seeds being produced.
