Join us with Central Texas Seed Savers to learn and collect native seeds at the Festival Beach Wildflower Meadow on Saturday, August 17th, from 9 AM to 11 AM. Central Texas Seed Savers is a growing network of people who love seeds. Join us to learn all about how to identify seeds, harvest them honorably and ethically, and preserve seeds that are diverse and locally adapted. Help spread the beauty and ecological benefits of native Texas Wildflowers! CTSS is a Project of Fruitful Commons.
