Learn from the Experts: Behind the Scenes Tour - Seed Processing Facility

Our Forest Preserve District harvests seeds from native plant species every summer and fall, but what happens to those seeds after they’ve been collected? Join our Natural Resource Management team for a special behind-the-scenes tour through their state-of-the-art seed processing facility. There, you’ll see first-hand the start-to-finish techniques and equipment used to dry, clean and sort native seeds in preparation for sowing back onto the landscape.
