spring. WE ARE NOW OPENING THE COURSE TO INTERNS. Please sign up
immediately *as the registration period is closing tomorrow (sorry this
information was relayed to us last minute).

*Seed Collection for Conservation and  Restoration (Seeds of Success

protocol for collection, shipping, and storage of native wildland seed
collections.  Material covered includes seed sampling strategies, field
preparedness, a native plant taxonomy review, the development of a targeted

the process for requesting native seed for small restoration and
