Native Seed Collection Clinic

Learn how to procure native seeds with our Natural Areas Steward, Bob Lange! Many of our native plants require a period of cold temperatures in order to germinate, called stratification. Learn about which of our species need to be planted in the fall. This is a unique program and visitors are asked not to remove natural materials from the parks without specific staff permission.Participants will serve as citizen scientists and collect native seeds from a meadow habitat that will be used in park natural areas projects, and will receive a small sample of seeds to take home as well.
