Description
Native Seeds/SEARCH (NS/S), the Southwest's indigenous seed conservation organization, offers a rare opportunity to explore the work that goes into preserving a collection of nearly 2,000 varieties of Southwest seeds. Discover the colorful history of NS/S, tour their state of the art seed bank and get a taste first hand of their diverse educational programs in seed saving and sustainability. The day will include experiential activities and seed processing. Enjoy a delectable feast of foods from crops stewarded by NS/S. Finally shop at their retail store, where you will receive 20% off on crafts of Native and local artisans, seeds, and foods of the Southwest, with all proceeds benefiting the organization. This package includes a free membership to Native Seeds/SEARCH. Transportation from the Garden departs at 8 a.m. and returns at 4 p.m.
