Events

Join us for an overview of home propagation of native plants from seeds.  Members will cover what to do with all of those seeds you've picked up from the Wild Ones Front Range seed swaps!

Presenters will include Zoe Turin, Eric Johnson, Tom Kraus, Ron Martin, and Mike Artmann.

Topics to be covered include:  

-A brief introduction to Jan Midgley's Germination Guide  

-Media ("soil") to use 

-Personal growth as a propagator: you, too, will get better over time! 

-Direct seeding larger projects 

-Scarification (treatments for tricky seed coats) 

-Stratification (overcoming seed dormancy) 

-QUESTIONS

Be sure to submit your propagation question you may have before the webinar (form in your registration confirmation)!

Designing with native plants isn’t just about what you grow, it’s about how you shape your space. In this hands-on workshop, Zoe Evans (Plan it Wild) and Heather Evans (Design Your Wild) guide you through the process of creating a cohesive yard plan that supports both your lifestyle and biodiversity.

WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO REGISTER FOR THIS EVENT.

We hope you can join us! We’ll have a variety of seed including annuals, perennials,  grasses, shrubs, and trees.  We will also have information about how to grow native seed, as well as info about plants which support pollinators and birds.  You don't need to bring seed to attend the event or bring home seed.

If you do have native seed to share, please label each species with this information:
* Botanical Name
* Common Name
* Collection City or County, Elevation, and Year 
* Your First Initial and Last Name
* If your seed is from a wild population rather than a garden site, add “WILD”

We happily accept seed from species native to Colorado and adjacent states. Please avoid cultivars, which might not support native pollinators and wildlife. We do NOT accept seeds from plants designated as noxious weeds.

You can drop off seed before the event in Boulder. Email [email protected] to coordinate. If you plan to bring seed the day of the event, please email the species name(s) to [email protected] ahead of time so that we can prepare information for attendees about your seed.

If you would like to volunteer to plan the Boulder County Plant Swap (Spring 2026!), also use that email.
