Sowing the Seeds of Grassland Restoration:

CNGA’s 30^th Anniversary Celebration

Friday, June 11, 2021 - 8:30 am to 3:30 pm, Online Event

CNGA and Hedgerow Farms are partnering for the 14^th year to offer this opportunity to look back and look forward at grassland restoration and practice in California’s spectacular native grasslands. We’ll take you through the restoration process: from wildland seed collection through farm production to tours of restored field site.

Follow the life of a seed from wildland seed collection to farm production.
