The *Community Seed Network
<https://rockymountainseeds.org/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=1285&qid=>*
 (CSN) is a new online resource created to help connect and support local
seed stewards and seed libraries with resources and networking
opportunities. The CSN began out of discussions among those gathered at the
International Seed Library Forum in Tucson in 2015, including members of
RMSA.

This is a great initiative that brings together many of the
organizations across the United States and Canada working to
bolster community-led seed saving and security efforts. *As a seed
librarian, we encourage you to sign up with the Community Seed Network
<https://rockymountainseeds.org/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=1286&qid=>
(both
as an individual and seed library organization, if applicable) and link in
to this exciting new resource.*

While the Rocky Mountain Seed Alliance will remain your hub for regionally
focused seed saving education, events, and programs, the Community Seed
Network can help connect us with others in the movement across North
America. There is also a wealth of free seed saving information and
organizational best practices for seed libraries available on the site.

Explore and enjoy!

In abundance,

RMSA Staff
