Intro to Seed Saving

Gather in the Library Garden to learn the fundamentals of seed saving. Kelsey Racicot from Rugged Roots Farm has been saving seeds for years at her farm in Bayview, Idaho. She will demonstrate how to get started with simple methods and tools that most people can use in their own gardens. We will harvest seeds from the Library Garden, and you will be able to take some home to plant next year.
