Sharing Seeds, Sharing Stories
Let’s honor the seeds that connect us—and the stories that nourish us.
Join us for a community seed swap and dialogue focused on the role of heirloom seeds and their importance in preserving biodiversity, history, and food sovereignty.
Participants will learn about a variety of heirloom seeds, discuss their unique cultural ties, and enjoy dishes based on these varieties.
Special Guest Speaker - Perren Carrillo (they/them) is the steward of Motherland, an ecological garden cultivating heritage foods from seed in their mother's front yard in Mid-City.
