Storytelling session on the virtues of seed-saving and growing your own food as an act of independence and self-reliance.
Saving and preserving heirloom seed and the grass-roots seed preservation movement protects the genetic diversity and biological provenance of our food, safe-guarding heritage that can be traced back through generations.
The simple act of sowing and growing an heirloom seed links the gardener to an unbroken chain of observation, selection and cultivation that stretches back to the earliest domestication of wild plants for human consumption.
