Ecotypic Seeds and Ecological Restoration with Sefra Alexandra
Chris sits down with Sefra Alexandra, aka the Seed Huntress, for a lively conversation about seed conservation. We talk about seed saving from the small community to global levels, from local seed libraries to the Global Seed Vault. Sefra helps demystify a lot of seed terminology, and explains how planting truly native plant ecotypes suited to our region supports pollinators and other wildlife, and makes a world of difference in the work of ecological restoration. At the end of the hour we cover "seed guilds" and how us regular gardeners can get involved in the work of restoration and seed stewardship!
