Appalachian Seed Growers Collective starts to take root
AVL TODAY
“Like many nonprofit initiatives, the Appalachian Seed Growers Collective grew out of a need — a need for local, regionally adapted seeds, a need for a committed growers community, a need for a network of support. The Utopian Seed Project, the organization behind the collective, trials crops and varieties in the Southeast to promote resiliency and biodiversity in the local food + farming system, but founder Chris Smith says they needed to bring others together.”
