Join us as we welcome Danielle Fegan from Three Dogs Seed Farm.Three Dogs Seed Farm is a small-scale seed farm situated on Anishinaabe land in the eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Their mission is to grow and share seeds important to our community and to steward crops adapted to our unique northern growing conditions.We will be discussing seed saving as well as growing a Three Sisters garden.
Overall, both of these practices contribute to the preservation of Indigenous knowledge, promote environmental sustainability, and empower communities to control their food systems. Danielle will be joining us via Zoom. You have the option to watch her virtually from home or join us to see her virtually at the Muskegon Museum of History and Science. Those joining us in at the museum will receive a complimentary seed pack of squash, bean, and corn seeds while supplies last.
