BC Seed Gathering

Join us this year, following the Organic BC Conference on Thursday, November 27 and Friday, November 28, for the 2025 BC Seed Gathering in Harrison Hot Springs.

Thursday features an afternoon farm tour co-hosted with Organic BC at Cedar Isle Farm from 2-4 PM and a harvest dinner ($35) from 6-9 PM. Please ensure to add these to your tickets at checkout to register.

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 by providing 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 range of issues related to seed security. Workshops cover topics such as seed saving, community organizing, and seed ownership. These workshops are geared toward improving communication and seed-saving skills and serve as a place to share knowledge about how seed security is integral to food security.
