OSA Welcomes Ken Greene to Board of Directors

OSA’s board of directors spans the U.S. and includes a diverse group of dedicated professionals from multiple roles in the organic seed community. We’re pleased to welcome our newest board member who joins us from the Northeast. Ken Greene is co-founder of the Hudson Valley Seed Library, a project he germinated in a small town library that has now blossomed into a seed company and organic seed farm devoted to producing seed for home gardeners and farmers, fostering a regional seed-saving community, and celebrating the diversity of seeds through art.

Ken and the Hudson Valley Seed Library are curating the Art of the Heirloom Expo at this year’s Heirloom Exposition in Santa Rosa, California. All are invited to submit artwork for consideration to be included in the expo and three pieces will be selected to be printed in Heirloom Gardener Magazine after the expo. Deadline for art submissions is July 31, 2014. Follow this link for more information and to submit your artwork.
