8th Annual Fall Seed Share
The Michigan Folk School, 2230 Platt Rd, Ann Arbor, MI
October 12th, 1-3:30 pm

The Washtenaw County Park & Recreation team will go on a seed collection hike throughout the prairies of County Farm Park and then will return to the Platt Pavilion for a seed share. Everyone is welcome! There are always extra seeds, so even if you don’t have anything to share, pick up some seeds and have a cup of tea at the campfire while you converse with like-minded people and learn more about the local native plant gardening and seed-saving community. This event is the kickoff to the Seeds2Community series. We are building a network of gardeners dedicated to saving biodiversity one garden at a time! Learn more here.
