The Seed Gathering will take place online to allow for international speakers and ensure the event is accessible and affordable. Tickets can be purchased through Eventbrite, and all details on how to set up on the event platform, Crowdcast, will be sent on in advance.

This is a weekend for celebrating the seeds we work with and the people who cultivate them; for sharing and learning; and for connecting across our local and international networks. We will be recording all the sessions so if you can’t attend at the weekend you can catch-up at your leisure afterwards! What you can expect:

• Keynote by journalist, broadcaster and author of award-winning Eating to Extinction Dan Saladino
• Celebrations of the diversity of our seed and the communities who grow them
• Legislation Action workshop in light of upcoming changes to UK seed legislation
• Practical sessions on DIY low-tech seed machinery and record-keeping
• Exploration into landrace gardening with Joseph Lofthouse
• Tips on seed saving for market growers
• …and much, much more!
