Join us!!! The McHenry County College (MCC) Center for Agrarian Learning and University of Illinois Extension Master Gardeners are teaming up to bring the first ever Great Seed Event to McHenry County, Saturday, February 3 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. in the MCC Café/Commons (B177). Event attendees can pick up native plant, vegetable, herb, and flower seeds (at no cost to them); attend seed-related demonstrations every half-hour (including how to save seeds, grow loofahs, and more); meet with various seed and supply vendors; and learn about garden resources. For those who already save seeds at home, there will also be a seed swap organized by McHenry County Plantings at 10 a.m. “Growing plants from seed—whether it is a vegetable, herb, flower or native plant—saves money and is fun and fulfilling,” said Emily Zack of the Center from Agrarian Learning at MCC. “This event can help home growers get started with lots of experts to answer questions and free seeds to take home and try. With demos and presentations throughout the day, plus vendors and non-profits sharing tips and products, this is a great way to start your seed growing journey. Whether you are new to seed saving and growing or have been doing it for years, this is the place to meet up with others who have a passion for growing.” The event is open to the public and free to attend. Registration is encouraged but not required. Register at: https://lnkd.in/gjvD3JD5. Those interested in becoming a vendor or hosting a non-profit table can sign up at https://lnkd.in/gjvD3JD5. Vendors must be seed-related (selling seeds, seed-starting equipment, providing information about seeds/plants, etc.). 6-ft. vendor tables are $50 and a non-profit table is $25. The vendor registration deadline is January 26. The event is sponsored by Ball Seed, the Environmental Defenders of McHenry County, Platt Hill Nursery, and Natural Communities, LLC. Seeds and goods have been donated by Ball Seeds, True Leaf Market, Prairie Moon Nursery, Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds, Victory Seed Company, Cornucopia Seeds, and Eden Brothers. For questions, contact Emily Zack at (815) 479-7563 or email ezack@mchenry.edu.

A glimmer of nature hope 🤞 in a constant stream of gloom *insert the price is right losing horn sound fx here* crazy interesting 🤔 makes me think of the mighty oaks in our 🔥🔥 dependant ecosystem. "Based on the age and mass of the trees and their normal rate of photosynthesis, Peltier calculated that the redwoods were calling on carbohydrates photosynthesized nearly 6 decades ago—several hundred kilograms’ worth—to help the sprouts grow. “They allow these trees to be really fire-resilient because they have this big pool of old reserves to draw on,” Peltier says." "Peltier and colleagues found that many of the buds, some of which had sprouted, extended back as much as 1000 years." https://lnkd.in/gZS39teV

I grew up in a small town in the Midwest. Every summer, I would spend hours playing in our yard and in the woods near my house. One of my favorite things to do was to catch lightning bugs. The yard and the woods were full of lightning bugs. On a warm summer night, the trees would be lit up with their flickering lights. It was magical. I would catch lightning bugs in jars and watch them glow. I would also let them go, so they could find their mates and start families. I loved watching the lightning bugs. They were a symbol of summer and childhood. They reminded me of simpler times, when I didn't have a care in the world. But as I got older, I noticed that there were fewer and fewer lightning bugs, and the lightning bugs were disappearing. But why? https://lnkd.in/gRRHx_-V
