In this episode, host Janet Michael kicks off "part one" of a conversation with Kerry Higdon. Kerry is an NSV Master Gardener (class of 2020) and the program lead for the upcoming Seed Exchange (tomorrow's show topic.) The conversation today revolves around Kerry's efforts to transform her backyard into a meadow to support wildlife despite facing initial opposition from the town of Edinburgh. Kerry shares the detailed process of obtaining permission from the town council, including speaking with the mayor, submitting a formal petition, and gathering community support via a GoFundMe campaign. Kerry also discusses the practicalities of seed saving and touches on the importance of understanding specific seed requirements, labeling, and storing methods, as well as the benefits of allowing a garden to support wildlife through different stages of plant life.

Seed saving may look tricky to beginner gardeners, but avid gardener and homesteader Mark Trealout says there are a lot of reasons to give it a try. He shares some tips.
Saving seeds from our gardens to use the next spring it is a great way to not only help our budget out a little bit but also to give ourselves some food security and doesn't sound like it should be a very difficult task. At that point we're not relying on someone else to grow our seeds for us that we have to buy over and over again. Just collect the seeds from whatever you want to keep, rinse them, dry them, and pack them away for next year, right? Well, yes, but also, no. The method I just described can absolutely mean you'll have beautifully preserved seeds that have fantastic germination the next season and yield a bounty of exactly what you thought you were planting. But it's equally possible that you'll open the seed packet the next season to find fuzzy gray fungus or black moldy growth on your seeds, or seeds that don't sprout properly, or maybe they sprout and you get midway through the gardening season and the fruit on the plant look nothing like the ones you saved the seeds from. So, today on Just Grow Something we're going to dig into which plants you should and shouldn't be saving seeds from, how to properly collect, clean, and dry those seeds in order to best guarantee your success the next season, and how to quickly test them before you store them to know if they're viable.

Seed Savers Exchange is a small non-profit that's making a big difference. For a half century, they've been saving seeds, getting them out into gardens, telling their stories––and cultivating biodiversity that has been badly diminished with the rise of corporate agriculture and seed production. Located in Decorah, Iowa, Seed Savers has a large farm where they cultivate genetic diversity, including vegetables, flowers, fruits, and even heritage livestock. You can get and share seeds through their exchange and their seed catalog.
In the first episode of the new series of Two Good Gardeners, Dan and Julia debate whether it's worth saving your own seeds and throw a spotlight on wool, the secret ingredient our gardens have been crying out for. Julia shares her top tips for growing lemongrass to fill your kitchen with oriental flavours, and Dan waxes lyrical about hostas, the foliage plant we'd all love to love if slugs and snails didn't love them more! As always, your hosts round off with a list of things to do in your garden over the next fortnight and news of where you can find or hear them next.Jobs for your garden this fortnight:Plant out hardened-off sweet peas.Deadhead daffodils and other spring-flowering bulbs.Put in supports for perennials and climbers before they get too large.Lift and divide hostas and other perennials you'd like more of.Protect fruit blossoms from late frosts.Feed citrus with summer feed.Plant out second-early potatoes.Sow carrots, beetroot, chard, spinach, salads, radish & peas.Watch out for box moth caterpillars and treat them if necessary.Ventilate greenhouses on sunny days.Website links:Dan Cooper GardenParker's Patch Hosted on Acast.

Seeds. Memory keepers. Speckled time travellers. Capsules of deep, earth wisdom. To control seeds is to control life. To be a seed is to hold the genetic code of turning starlight into matter, of morphing your body into soft green tips that tremble in the wind and drink fire. There is a deep co-evolutionary relationship that exists in your bones, between humans, land, ecology, and seeds.And we are losing them. An absence of flourishing seed systems directly correlates with a loss of cultural identity for thousands of communities around the world. Life for rural communities fractures. We're losing our seed keepers. The freedom of seeds therefore becomes a political act of justice, on food sovereignty, indigenous rights, and restoring power back into the hands of farmers. So how does this rich history weave into the story of today's guest?Milka Chepkorir Kuto is an anthropologist and climate and human rights activist. She is a member of the Sengwer indigenous community of Kenya's Rift Valley, and she has become a representative for her people in defending their land rights after violent evictions from their traditional lands. Milka is also a Coordinator of Defending Territories of Life at ICCA Consortium, and has worked the UN Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. Her community is now working to revitalize people-land relationships through indigenous knowledge, and Milka works with the women to save and protect their ancestral ways and seed systems. As Milka speaks, you can feel in her spirit this visceral connection to place, story, food, culture, a weaving of seed, hand, heart, human, forest. Milka herself is a seed, a story keeper, a culture holder, an inspirational tie between ancestral knowing and the modern world.Episode Website LinkShow Links:Milka's Crowdfunding Site for Lifeworlds listeners: “Help the Indigenous Sengwer Peoples of Kenya”Revitalizing Sengwer People-Land RelationshipsSeed savers network KenyaGlobal Alliance for Future of FoodOpen Seed SharingEarthed course: Saving Seeds for a Better FutureWill Bonsall, Scatterseed ProjectMovie: SEED, The Untold StoryGaia Foundation Seed SovereigntySeeds of Freedom TrilogyNavdanya from Vandana ShivaMusic: Electric Ethnicity by Igor Dvorkin, Duncan Pittock & Ellie KiddCover Photo by Svjetlana Tepavcevic, Means of Reproduction.

If you were gardening in 2020 you likely remember the shortage of seeds that happened when the world shut down and suddenly everybody was growing a garden. Many seed companies were overwhelmed with the influx of orders and that shortage continued into the 2021 season. There's nothing more disappointing than to peruse a beautiful seed catalog and make out your list of favorites to grow, only to be told the company is sold out. Enter seed saving. If you grow heirloom or open-pollinated varieties, you can avoid this problem all together by saving your own seeds. Not only is it cost effective but often times you are creating a stronger strain that is going to work particularly well in your garden each subsequent year because the parent plant has been exposed to, and survived, everything your climate can throw at it. Today on Just Grow Something we're digging into why we should add seed saving to our list of garden tasks, even if it isn't for every variety we grow in our garden. We'll talk about the practice of saving seeds, including plant selection and pollination control, and go step-by-step into how to extract, clean, dry, and store those precious commodities to be sure we have plenty of options for our gardens for years to come. Let's dig in. Episode Resources: Plan Like a Pro is open for fall registration!

SPECIAL GUEST Anthony Bracco Bracco Farms in Pine Island, NY Bracco Farms Website - http://braccofarms.com/home.html The Bracco Family, lives in Cedar Grove, NJ and also own/run a very pure, independent, small batch, naturally-grown, sustainable family farm in Pine Island NY. After running his graphic design business for nearly 30 years, in 2009 we decided to buy a farm to have a large garden where we would grow for ourselves the cleanest produce possible while working with the individual character of each natural season. We set out using Safe-Seed-Pledge Non-GMO seeds and instituting time-tested natural sustainable farming techniques along with hand-cultivation of weeds without the use of any herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, weed killers, chemicals or glyphosate. To our surprise, so many people approached us to purchase what we were growing Bracco Farms was born. Now, while still maintaining our original farm ethics and techniques, Bracco Farms supplies our farm stand, many farm2fork chefs and organic farmers who purchase our produce for their own farm stands. 25 acre farm in New York Golf resort near our farm was our very first commercial customer, they wanted fresh produce for their restaurant there. It really builds character to work on a farm when you are young. Victory Garden - growing essential foods to sustain your family.

This episode is a certified humdinger and a rarefied crackerjack, and it ranges far and wide. We begin with, you already know, those zany audio tidbits. I then dive into a discussion regarding the mechanisms and inner nature of creative burnout, how inspiration works, and how to recover from demiurgic blocks. Also included in this ep is a recent Yak Fest with the inimitable Dr. Sylvie Salinger, where we chat about seed banks, saving seeds, and the fact that everyone's favorite Epstein-connected gremlin Billy Boy Gates is seizing control of the world's seed supply. The Outro this week is a verified "Hold Onto Yer Butt" situation. For the reading I share an interview with Robert Stinnett, a naval photographer in the Pacific Theater during WW2, where he speaks about his book Days of Deceit, which provides FOIA backed evidence that FDR, the FBI, and the Office of Naval Intelligence all knew the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was coming, and allowed it to happen, in order to manufacture consent for an American entrance into the war.

In my zone 4 area we generally start saving seeds in mid-October. Native plants work best in terms of continued viability and remaining true to the original plant but you can also save seeds of cultivars just don't expect the new plant to look exactly the same! On today's Garden Bite I share ways to harvest the seed and store it, how long it lasts and more.
This is the time of year when most gardeners in the Northern Hemisphere begin preserving their harvest. Summer's bounty is giving one last push and the cooling temperatures mean the fall garden is ramping up. Over the next few weeks, we'll talk about preserving that harvest, and this week is no different. But, instead of talking fruits and veggies for eating we're talking seeds for growing. Saving seeds from our own gardens can have many benefits. Not only are we ensuring we have enough seeds for next seasons garden, hedging your bets against shortages (see also: The Year That Shall Not Be Spoken Of), but seeds we save and replant year after year will also be better suited to our unique climate and gardening situation. But knowing which seeds to save can give us a little trouble. Will it produce the same fruit we harvested it from or something different? Did it cross-pollinate with something else or is it self-pollinating? And how long will they last in storage before I need to refresh my seed stash? We dig into all this and more while talking the basics of saving seeds on today's episode.

Have you decided this is the year you'll start saving seeds from your garden? Or, maybe you've saved seeds in the past and have had some problem with viability or germination the next season. I mean, it doesn't sound like it should be a difficult task. Just collect the seeds from whatever you want to keep, rinse them, dry them, and pack them away for next year, right? Well, sure! And while following this simple method can absolutely mean you'll have beautifully preserved seeds that have fantastic germination the next season and yield a bounty of exactly what you thought you were planting, it's equally possible that you'll open the seed packet the next season to find fuzzy gray fungus or black moldy growth on your seeds, or nice looking seeds that don't sprout properly, or maybe they sprout and you get midway through the gardening season and the fruit on the plant look nothing like the ones you saved the seeds from. What seems like it should be a straightforward process actually requires a little finesse. So, this Garden Talk Tuesday I'm going to dig into which plants you should and shouldn't be saving seeds from, how to properly collect, clean, and dry those seeds in order to best guarantee your success the next season, and what to do with certain seeds to hedge your bets against carrying disease over from one season to the other.
