Spend an evening with Active Cultures and Altadena Seed Library as we come together for a hands-on volunteer workshop dedicated to nurturing native seeds for the community. Together we’ll clean, sort, and label a variety of seeds to prepare them for community sharing, while learning simple seed-saving techniques and connecting with fellow seed enthusiasts.

The workshop will be led by Nina Raj, founder of the Altadena Seed Library, who will share her knowledge and passion for seed stewardship and local biodiversity.

Seed snacks and herbal teas will be provided, and no experience is needed—all materials and guidance are included. Come lend a hand, unwind after the day, and help Altadena Seed Library grow!

This event will take place at Altadena Seed Library in Pasadena, exact location available upon registration.

About Altadena Seed Library

Altadena Seed Library is a growing network that offers seed exchange boxes alongside educational and conservation resources. By distributing free seeds, the organization aims to expand equitable access to shade and green spaces, increase food sovereignty, foster community connections, and restore local ecosystems. In the wake of the Eaton Fire, Altadena Seed Library is providing free seeds and seed education to affected residents, remediating toxic soils, and working to establish conservation seed banks throughout the region. While Altadena Seed Library facilitates long-term seed conservation through decentralized seed banking, its little free seed libraries are designed as dynamic, living resources that can operate autonomously when maintained by their communities. To build stewardship capacity, Altadena Seed Library offers various educational resources, including videos, zines, and workshops.
