Join us as we launch our volunteer native seed collection program. Through our seed collection program, we intend to collect native plant seeds for propagation to restore native habitats of Northern Lower Michigan. 

We will start the day with a presentation introducing you to our native seed collection program and why collecting locally sourced seeds is important. We will teach you how to properly identify, collect and clean seeds to be used in future restoration efforts. Then we will go outside and practice collecting seeds followed by a cleaning demonstration. No prior experience is required. 

In the event of heavy rain, we will just hold the morning information portion and not be collecting seeds outside. 

We strive to host inclusive, accessible events that enable all individuals to engage fully. It is a priority for Huron Pines to ensure that our communications and programming are available and accessible to everyone. Please contact maddie@huronpines.org if you have any questions about accessibility or believe barriers remain.

We recognize that accessibility is not always possible in every area of our work. Our efforts are ongoing. Through a commitment to continued learning and understanding, we will strengthen our awareness of the barriers and inequities that exist at the individual and community levels, in order to advance more equitable opportunities to experience the outdoors in our region.
