Good Morning All,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>During the Native Seed Conference last winter, the group involved in the tools for seed collectors task force expressed a need for a common place to seek or post information about seed collecting. In response to this request the task force has
<a href="https://seedcollectors.forumotion.com/">developed a forum</a> for posting information and questions on a wide range of topics regarding seed collection. In an effort to test its usefulness I invite all of you to sign up for an account and get involved
in the discussion. The hope is that the more people that participate, the more useful this forum will become. It may be seem as duplicative to this listserve, but we think that it will provide a unique way for seed collectors to communicate <span style="font-size: 12pt;">with</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">and
assist</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">one another in our national seed conservation efforts. </span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br>
</span></div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Clara</div>
