Conservation In Practice: Seed Banking & Ex-Situ Conservation
With Michael Piantedosi, New England Wild Flower Society
Plants are critical to maintaining ecosystems, and often constitute what we think of as a “habitat.” New England Wild Flower Society conserves native plants through applied environmental conservation efforts, including the use of ex-situ conservation, or seedbanking. Current efforts to restore native New England habitat—one seed at a time will be discussed. Refreshments.
