Native Plant Seed Collection

course description

Before you can break ground on a vegetation restoration project you need good seeds. In this two-day course, you will get to know which native species grow from seed and why safe and successful picking is the product of good planning. You will also get hands-on practice at preparing and packaging the fruits of your labours, so you know you have seeds that are good to grow. These practical skills will be backed up by an introduction to the regulatory rules and ethical obligations collectors must observe to ensure that nature’s supply of native plant seed never runs out.
