BC Seed Gathering

Our BC Seed Gathering connects over 100 seed growers, advocates, and community organizers from across BC to build and align a strong provincial seed sector. Biennial seed gathering events increase the availability, supply, quality, and diversity of locally produced seeds through learning and engagement opportunities. We collaborate with stakeholders to build momentum from these gatherings for a broader impact on BC’s sustainable seed sector. BC Seed Gathering’s diverse session content intentionally facilitates meaningful dialogue and opportunities for participants to connect in a greater capacity. There are no other seed-specific events like this around.

The biennial BC Seed Gathering is a place for farmers, gardeners, students, and seed community activists to come together to learn and share ideas on a number of different issues as they relate to seed security. Workshops cover topics such as seed saving, community organizing, seed ownership. These workshops are geared to helping improve communications, seed saving skills, and as a place to share knowledge about how seed security is an integral part of food security.
