We are grateful to be here today bringing this offering to Ogah' pogeh (Santa Fe, NM), ancestral lands of the Tesuque Tewa.
This Seed Bank exists for our community, for the many plants and animals that rely on biodiversity for their survival and for the many generations of children who will inherit this earth after us.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Read through our INVENTORY and copy & paste the plants you want to grow into a list. After each plant write in a number for how many plants you'd like to grow.
ex. "Line 14, BEAN, BUSH, Black Velantine" "10 plants" (equals how many plants you'd like to grow"
2. Seeds marked "open pollinated" are ideal for Seed Saving.
