SUMMARY:Native Seed Collection and Sowing with Chris Nilan of Barkaboom Native Plants
DESCRIPTION:Join native plant nursery owner Chris Nilan as we learn the ins and outs of growing native plants from wild-collected seeds. Chris will cover the ethics and benefits of seed collection\, how to determine seed ripeness and viability\, seed harvesting\, processing\, and storage\, as well as the various methods of achieving germination\, from winter sowing to artificial stratification. This will be a hands-on workshop where participants will receive native wildflower seeds from Chris’s seed plots to try growing at home. \nChris Nilan is the owner and grower at Barkaboom Native Plants\, a native plant nursery in Margaretville\, NY. At Barkaboom\, Chris grows over 125 species of perennial plants native to the Catskills\, entirely from seed and with a strong focus on local ecotypes. This emphasis on locally adapted seeds means that at certain times of the year\, Chris spends more time in forests\, swamps\, beaver meadows\, bogs and floodplains than in the nursery. Prior to his total infatuation with growing native plants\, Chris worked for a near-decade on a number of organic vegetable farms in the Hudson Valley\, Maine\, and Connecticut. \nThis event is a collaboration between Mountain Top Arboretum and Mountain Top Historical Society.
