Join the Virginia Cooperative Extension - Loudoun Master Gardeners Thursday, April 1, 2021, at 7:00 p.m. for a virtual lecture: "Why Save Seeds?"

Why save seeds? People save seeds for many different reasons: save money, share with friends, preserve an heirloom, and more. Preservation of seeds is one of the foundations of sustainable food production. You can also save seeds from many flowering perennials. Learn the basics of why and how to harvest, clean, store, and plant seeds for your own garden.

Normalee Martin is a VCE Loudoun County Master Gardener from the class of 2008. Volunteering as Team Co-Lead of the Master Gardener Demonstration Garden at Ida Lee Park, Leesburg, since 2010, she will share her great knowledge in the science of saving seeds.
