🥾 Take a deep breath on a clear trail. 🥾

Ever feel better after a walk in the woods? Our SEEDS EcoCorps crews work hard to keep trails open and safe. They clear away fallen trees and fix pathways so you can enjoy nature without any stress. We clear the trails so you can find your peace!

We're working to support Mental Health Month. Thanks for supporting SEEDS. Action link in comments!

The worms are ready, is your garden?!
$15 for 1/2 lb of red wiggler (Eisenia fetida) worms and starter castings to add to or begin your own home worm composting system!

Includes easy instructions for making your own worm bin from recycled materials. Worms are pick-up only and come in a recycled plastic container. Worms will need to be ‘homed’ within one week to ensure their best health. While supplies last. Shop at ecoseeds.org

Preserving native habitats is crucial, and comprehensive training is equally vital. The SEEDS EcoCorps team is equipped to respond effectively in both field and classroom settings. We extend our gratitude to the Traverse City Fire Department for providing essential safety training!

Inside a masonry heater, temperatures can soar past 1,500°F (creating an incredibly clean, efficient burn) while the outside stays around 100°F once the masonry mass is fully heated. 🔥

These thermal images capture the magic happening at the SEEDS Workshop at Historic Barns Park this winter - intense heat moving rapidly through internal channels, then settling into steady, comfortable warmth that radiates for hours after the fire is out.
