Join us for a Seed Saving Field Day on September 28th, in collaboration with Keep Growing Detroit!

This field day will serve as an on-farm workshop for farmers to learn about organic seeds, and to facilitate the increased use and production of organic seeds in the Midwest. A focus of this program will be how climate impacts seed production, and how organic farmers can mitigate against climatic challenges to produce high-quality seeds.

Featuring:

  • Demonstrations on seed cleaning for various crops led by experienced seed producers and seed keepers
  • Insightful speakers, including OSA’s Michael Lordon, sharing their expertise
  • Refreshments and complimentary seed saving kits for first 50 attendees
