Native Seed Collection for the Home Gardener

Use those seeds! Join Sarah Michehl from The Land Conservancy of McHenry County for tips and tricks on how to collect your native plant seeds. She will cover basic seed identification, collection methods and timelines, and tips on how to direct sow your seeds.
