Students presenting during the Cebu training for trainers

Seed School

Seed School is the first part of a three part program that includes Seed School Teacher Training and Introduction to Permaculture. Seed School is the flagship of Global Seed Savers Philippines’ trainings. The participants of this program are people who will eventually become part of a bigger movement of seed keepers in the Philippines or those who are interested in starting seed libraries in their communities.

Our US offices are based in Denver, Colorado, which is the land of the Cheyenne and Arapaho and 48 other Indigenous Tribes and Nations who call Colorado home. They are the original Stewards of this stolen land and it is because of their successes and continued hardships that we are able to engage in our collective work of restoring the indigenous practice of saving seeds.
