Seed School In A Day

This wonderful and informative seed school is the brain child of Bill McDorman.

Bill McDorman is Executive Director of the Rocky Mountain Seed Alliance (RMSA), a grassroots, seed conservation non-profit created to to assure a diverse supply of local seeds through community-based seed stewardship. Bill holds a B.A. in Philosophy from the University of Montana. In 1981 he co-founded Garden City Seeds in Missoula, Montana. In 1984 he started Seeds Trust/High Altitude Gardens, a bioregional, mailorder seed company he ran successfully for 28 years. From 2011 until 2014 Bill and his wife Belle served as Executive Directors of Native Seeds/SEARCH in Tucson, Arizona. In 2010 they founded Seed School, an internationally recognized program now with more than 1,000 graduates from around the world. They have gone on to create Grain School and Seed School Online. And we, Slow Food of Prescott, now have the privilege of offering a condensed one day version of this informative workshop locally.

McDorman is the author of Basic Seed Saving which he wrote in 1994 and which will be provided to our attendees at seed school.
