grow out seeds
Growing out seed crops means seeing their full life cycle - from seed to seed. A seed grow-out tells you what varieties perform well in organic settings, it can be a tool for seed conservation, and a great way to learn the craft.
Depending where you live, there are myriad opportunties to participate in seed grow-outs. Farm Folk City Folk has a Citizen Seed Trial in BC. SeedChange runs rare seed grow-outs in support of the Atlantic Canada Regional Seed Bank, and Seeds of Diversity Canada coordinates multiple grow-out programs for farmers and gardeners across Canada.
