Seed Harvest Workshop - October 4 at Noon
As you know, one the Polygonia Foundation's focuses is the native seed sharing program. On the first Sunday of October each year we host a Seed Harvest Workshop at Butterfly Ridge, to teach folks best techniques for seed harvest. Every participant can go home with seed, if they like. This is the only Butterfly Ridge program that is completely FREE, and does not require paid admission, so please feel free to make a donation or visit the Butterfly Ridge gift shop! Email chris(at)butterfly-ridge(dot)com to reserve a spot at the workshop. Use the subject line SEED HARVEST WORKSHOP. Space is limited!

🍂Native Flora Stratification Guide!

Here’s a quick list of some of our seeds that require cold stratification - either naturally or artificially - to break dormancy and prepare for spring germination.

Natural stratification: Plant your seeds outdoors this fall and let winter provide the cold, moist conditions they need.

Artificial stratification: If you prefer to stratify indoors, you can use a refrigerator to replicate those conditions.

Either way, now is the time to get started! 🌱
