Gratitude for All the Seed Saving: Urban Roots
On Thursday Oct 14th Urban Roots (https://urbanrootsmn.org ) an amazing community partner in the Capitol Region Watershed District, hosted a seed cleaning and saving workshop at their location in the heart of the Swede Hollow neighborhood for MnSEED participants. David Woods, Urban Roots Conservation Director and Urban Roots interns threshed and sifted/winnowed seed from their stewarded prairie site and shared their best practices and tools. Thanks to MnSEEDer and Minneapolis garden connector, Vanessa VanAlstine we also got the chance to work with her custom made seed aspirator. To check out photos and video from this wonderful early evening event take a look here (https://photos.app.goo.gl/85Y59MkiHNUZfvSq9) For those MnSEEDers participating in the seed swap David will be our instructor for seed propagation on November 18th. We can't wait! Thank you so much Urban Roots and Capitol Region Watershed District for funding these wonderful opportunities to connect native seed and people!
