Join the Scottish Seedfest this summer
This day-long event is an opportunity for you to meet with other members of the Scottish Seed Sovereignty Network, find out what they are up to, get involved in existing projects and plan new ones, and build momentum in the network! 
The Scottish Seed Network welcomes graduates of the Seed Sovereignty Programme trainings, community seed initiatives, and anyone working with growing, trialling, or breeding seed. Please note that the 23rd is focused on vegetable seed, while the 24th is focused on our grain network, Common Grains. You can find the sign-up for the grain event here: https://app.tickettailor.com/events/thegaiafoundation/2312078
