Native
Plant Cuttings and Seed Collection Workshop
Join the Salmon Protection and Watershed
Network (SPAWN) for a morning workshop on native plant cuttings
and seed collection and propagation techniques.
Participants will learn how to identify
native plants and collect cuttings and seeds in the Marin's Lagunitas
Watershed in this second workshop. Rose Roberts, Nursery Manager
for Circuit Riders Productions Inc will be leading the session
in partnership with SPAWN. Gardners and restoration ecologists
alike prefer native plants from local seed sources. Species targeted
will include cottonwood, hazelnut, snowberry, blackberry and alder.
Cuttings collected during the workshop will be cultivated and
returned to the San Geronimo Valley for various restoration projects
next spring and summer to improve habitat for spawning salmon
populations and a myriad of other species.
