SUMMARY:Sonora Seed Share
DESCRIPTION:It all starts with the seeds. Local farmers\, gardeners\, and seed savers share the same desire to have high-quality open-pollinated seeds that are adaptable to the Sierra foothill region. So it is that every February for over a decade FoCuS sponsors an event with collaborative partners\, the Master Gardeners\, for the locals to share or purchase seeds. The seeds for purchase are ordered in bulk and volunteers repackage them into coin envelopes available to the public for a very reasonable donation. Attendees of the event can also listen to educational talks about permaculture\, gardening tips\, starting seeds\, and more.
