Seed Collecting Workday @ Everett Farm Nature Center | Lake Forest | Illinois | United States

As part of our collaboration with Lake Forest Open Lands on their 770 Westleigh property, we will be harvesting seed at LFOLA’s Everett Farm site. This location has a larger seed bank due to previous restorations, allowing us to collect seed from many species not currently seen or underrepresented at 770 Westleigh.  Some of this seed, once processed, can then be used for distribution at the 770 Westleigh site.

As usual, dress in long pants and consider sunscreen, a hat and insect repellent. We will provide water and snacks. If possible, bring a refillable water bottle.
