Living History Garden Opening Gathering

In our Living History Garden this year, we are growing 19 different crops, each of which highlight seed saving as a tool for food sovereignty amid enslavement, forced migration, and colonization.

These crops were requested by members of our community, or tell important stories of our time, and carry the weight of history, sharing about the people who have cared for them across generations, and bridge us to the future by continuing to grow these crops.

Please join us to explore some of these crops more closely by hearing stories about the crops themselves, as well as stories of migration, displacement, and belonging. We will also sample some foods made with crops from the garden, and invite others to share about their own connections to meaningful crops and food sources.

This event is free and open to the public!
