August Seed Growers Meet-up

Join the August Seed Grower Meetup! 🌻

As summer reaches its peak, seed crops are ripening, pods are rattling, and the first harvests for seed are beginning. It’s a time of both tending and letting go—selecting the strongest plants, tracking traits, and starting to think ahead to seed cleaning and storage.

Whether you're deep in hand-pollination work, watching your fruits mature, or wondering how to tell if your seed is ready to harvest, this is the space to connect with fellow growers, share your stories, and ask questions.

Join us for this informal lunchtime meetup and tap into the collective knowledge of the seed community. We’ll talk about what’s growing well (and what’s not), what surprises have shown up in the field, and what lessons this season is offering.

Bring your lunch, your seed season updates, and your curiosity. All are welcome—EFAO members and non-members, experienced seedkeepers and newcomers alike!

Let’s gather, reflect, and keep growing stronger together.
