A seed is a powerful resource. In this workshop led by UCSC Farm & Garden Staff, we'll discuss best practices for sowing, cultivating seedlings and transplanting. We will also explore strategies for planning and timing a successful warm season garden in this region. During the hands-on portion of the workshop we will sow seeds and work with seedlings, which you can take home and cultivate in your garden. Whether this is your first time to sow seeds or you have been stewarding your garden for years this will be a great way to spring into the growing season.
Instructor: Kellee Matsushita-Tseng is a graduate of the Apprenticeship in Ecological Horticulture and joined the staff in 2016 to help manage the handworked garden areas at the CASFS/UCSC Farm. She is especially interested in seed conservation and preservation, and the links between genetic biodiversity, cultural diversity, and collective liberation.
