Join Diane Ott Whealy, co-founder of Seed Savers Exchange, the nation’s largest nonprofit seed-saving organization, for an engaging talk on the power of seed saving and the essential role home gardeners play in protecting plant diversity.

These insights apply to gardens of any size, with a focus on self-seeding annuals, seed saving, and building a sustainable, edible landscape.
