Seed Saving 101 is a hands-on workshop filmed at Seed Spirit Farm on Salt Spring Island, led by renowned seed saver and educator Dan Jason of Salt Spring Seeds. This in-depth farm tour brings seed saving to life, blending practical demonstrations with deep ecological and cultural context. The video covers a wide range of crops and techniques, including hand-processing amaranth, harvesting and threshing quinoa, working with ancient grains like sorghum, cleaning seeds with screens, wet-processing tomato seeds, and drying and storing seeds for long-term viability. Viewers also explore flower seeds such as cosmos, calendula, strawflowers, and centaureas, along with food crops including sunflowers, flax, jewel corn, beets, chard, wheat, and a special heritage tomato variety. Along the way, Dan Jason, Fernando Garcia Vicario, and Caitlyn Price share insights on climate adaptation, nutrition, food uses, and the deeper relationship between people and plants. The film emphasizes that seed keepers are not just growers, but carriers of stories, biodiversity, and living history. The video also highlights Seedy Saturdays across Canada and invites viewers to learn more and order seeds at saltspringseeds.com. Produced with support from the Government of British Columbia’s Knowledge Transfer Program, in collaboration with the Salt Spring Island Farmland Trust.
