Join Grey Bruce Native Seed Bank and Beaver Valley Destination Stewardship as we continue to nurture our relationship with the land, this time through planting! Come have fun planting on Wednesday, September 18th, 6:00-8:00pm!

The Grey Bruce Native Seed Bank mission is to sustainably collect wild adapted seed, grow it up in seed orchards, harvest it and process it to provide large quantities of archived, genetically diverse seed for restoration projects in this area.

The Bruce Trail Conservancy provided the Grey Bruce Native Seed Bank with farm land on Sideroad 6 near Pinnacle Rock in Duncan, Ontario. There exists the beginning of a 5 acre seed orchard. Numerous seed collection events last fall allowed for direct winter sowing as well as seed stratifying and tray planting. As the season shifts to fall it is time to plant seedlings!

All are welcome, no experience required. Please wear comfortable clothing and footwear for planting in a field. Tools will be provided, but please bring a trowel if you can.
