Native Seed Collection and Seed Exchange

Join TNC and Ben Casteel of Virginia Highlands Community College along the North Fork of the Holston River for a native plant seed collection and seed exchange event. This event will highlight the importance of native plants, particularly in residential applications, as well as demonstrate collection methods, and seed starting techniques that native seeds require. Afterwards partipants will have an opportunity to collect native seeds, including goldenrod, wingstem, false sunflower, aster, milkweed, and many others. To add to the plant diversity, participants are welcome to bring native seeds to share with others.
