UPDATE on 10/10:

Due to the rain in forecast for Sunday, we are shifting the start time of the event earlier, 10 - 11:30am.  Hope to see you there!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Join us in the garden for in-person demonstrations and practice on seed harvesting!

Learn about different kinds of seed dispersal, how to tell when seeds are ready, how to collect and clean in the field!

Volunteers will be able to take some seeds home with them, but we will be collecting most of the seeds to contribute to Mystic Charles Pollinator Pathways' annual seed distribution efforts.

Later in the year these seeds will be mixed with other seed donations of the same species and packaged into individual envelopes and distributed for free to gardeners in the Mystic and Charles Rivers regions.
