Reaping the Harvest: Collection, Processing, and Sowing of Native Seeds

Reaping the Harvest: Collection, Processing, and Sowing of Native Seeds

Tuesday, September 1st, 2026. 7-8pm. University of Illinois Extension Auditorium. 100 US Highway 45, Grayslake. In-Person (virtual option available). This event is free and open to the public. Hosted by Wild Ones Lake-to-Prairie Chapter and the University of Illinois Extension - Lake County.

Seeds are key for restoring our ecosystems and adding native plants to our yards. As diverse as our native plants are, they are equally diverse in how they disperse their seeds. We'll look at different approaches for seed collection, equipment and techniques to clean that seed, and sowing to get the best results out of those seeds. Presented by Luke Dahlberg, Native Seed Program Manager at Citizens for Conservation.
