Man, ya gotta love Sustainable Green Lake! This summer, they brought a master composter, a street mural, and a BBQ to Green Lake. Now, they’re sharing their tomato connections with us and radicalizing us. Merci, SGL!
Seedsaving as an Activist Practice a sideshow presentation by Marisha Auerbach

Yogalife Studio

Seattle, WA 98115
$10 – $7 sliding scaleSeedsaving gives us the unique opportunity to dance with life and play a distinct role in our nourishment. We can nurture plants for the special qualities that may sustain us in an uncertain future. As corporations attempt to take control of our genetic diversity, seedsaving becomes an important political act.
Come join us to learn how you can take responsibility for your own food supply by saving your own seeds from your garden. We will be discussing harvest of cultivated and native seeds as well as flowers and vegetable crops. Seed saving is a great localizing buffer against the globalization of our food supply, because it encourages diversity and increases the resilience in our gardens to pests and diseases.
