Next up is Eve Allen, program director at Ecological Health Network. Eve will be speaking on her work with EHN to strengthen native seed and plant material commercial supply chains.

Sefra Alexandra, the self-proclaimed Seed Huntress, takes the virtual stage next, with her talk Ecotypic Education Evolution, which dives into mentoring organic farmers to grow native plants and save seeds, to support a growing demand.

Next is Max Piana, with his talk Bringing Back the Oak, which will detail urban forestry and rewilidng efforts. Max is a research ecologist with the US Forest Service.

Rounding out the program is Jessica Alba, Stewardship Educator for the Watershed Agricultural Council. Jessica’s talk, Help and Hope for Landowners reviews resources for homeowners interested in responsible land stewardship for their property.
