Our Seeds: Intro to the politics and practicalities of seed life cycles
Come along to discuss the politics and practicalities of seed life cycles with hands on explorations of:
- growing from seed using soil blocks, with Gather Market Garden
- seed biology with Royal Botanical Gardens Edinburgh
- seed saving with Edinburgh Agroecology Cooperative
- grain tasting from Granton Garden Bakery
- Kenyan bean stories and tastings with Kũmatha
This event is for ages 16+ as the activities are intended for adult concentration spans!
Please bring a packed lunch with you. We will supply tea, coffee & biscuits.
This is an indoor event in the Market Garden’s Pack Shed – this space will protect us from the elements, but isn’t insulated, so please bring lots of warm layers.
The true cost of offering this workshop would be £53 (standard) per ticket, but thanks to funding from Plant Health Centre Scotland we’re able to offer it for:
£15 (solidarity +50%)
£10 (standard)
£5 (discount -50%)
(plus Eventbrite fees)
If the ticket cost is a barrier, please get in touch with emma@lauristonfarm.org as we have some (limited) free places available.
