ONLINE: Collecting Native Seeds
There are likely some native seeds along this segment of the Ice Age Trail.
Friends of Allen Centennial Garden sponsors a fall-themed class series Thursdays in October, featuring topics mixing garden cleanup and preparation for next spring. The series kicks off with a how-to on the dos and don'ts of gathering your own seeds for next season's growing. Each class features a recorded lecture by Allen horticulture director Josh Steger and a follow-up Q&A session on Zoom. Find the schedule and register for each class ($10) here.
press release: Seed companies experienced a huge boost in sales this year, leaving many people without seeds or experiencing a large delay in receiving their seeds. Get ahead of the curve for next year by learning to harvest native seeds in order to keep your garden growing strong.
Each class in the Fall Series will be divided into two parts.
This class begins with a video hosted by Allen Centennial Garden Director of Horticulture, Josh Steger. In the first half of class Josh will demonstrate best practices and techniques for collecting seed from your home garden. You will be able to ask questions throughout this portion via the chat function in Zoom.
The remainder of this 1 hour class is open for live discussion and questions. Questions asked through Zoom during the video portion of class will be answered at this time.
