“The act of generosity, the thought of kindness, the urge to share and to give unto others as the Land is continuously giving so much to us.”
- Mayam Garris, Land Steward
Here’s How to Receive Seeds!
If you are interested, identify as QTBIPOC2S or live in the Southwest, please reach out to mayam using this form.
We are prioritizing QTBIPOC2S communities and growers as many of these seeds are from Indigenous communities specific to the Southwest and there is a vast legacy and cultural importance tied to these seeds.
Acknowledging the shift of the seasons, the beauty of stillness in the winter months, and the transition into darker days has allowed for the wonderful moments of reflection. Has the winter called you to reflect as well?
Lately, there has been this consistent theme of the vulnerable gift of generosity, that has the power to heal us and change our lives. Isn’t it odd that generosity would come at a time of darkness and quiet? And yet here it is, the act of generosity, the thought of kindness, the urge to share and to give unto others as the Land is continuously giving so much to us.
“I have had the opportunity to grow plants for seed saving/sharing and these plants have been quite generous indeed! Following the lesson of the plants I am longing to share seeds with you, if you have the curiosity to learn from the plants, grow together and witness the miracle of tender plant beings!” - Mayam Garris, Land Steward
