Sacred Seeds: supporting communities supporting biodiversity
What does it take to support biological and biocultural diversity? It takes the collective effort of thousands of people in thousands of ecosystems. In our increasingly connected world, we find ourselves dependent on and rooting for people across the globe. How to we support communities from afar, without imposing undue burdens? Sacred Seeds is actively working with communities to address species and knowledge loss on a local level, with local community members driving the conversation. With over two dozen garden partners on six continents, Sacred Seeds reflects the global diversity of ecosystems, cultures, and conservation approaches.
