Hello Everyone!
Please begin searching for heirloom seed as you think about prep for class. We are especially looking for those that are significant to the county/state/region in the past or present. I appreciate your help and welcome any questions.
To get you started, check:
Seed Savers Exchange
Southern Exposure Seed Exchange
Heavenly Seed
Clemson and the USDA webpages
forums on gardening in SC or gardening in general--> possibly Organic Gardening magazine or Mother Earth News
local resources: family members, friends, your farmer's market vendor, etc.
AND if anyone likes history, even popular literature on the history of Charleston plantations might mention foodways or important plants
Any ideas are valuable here. This is a big project, requiring a little bit of sleuthing. Thanks again! Looking forward to hearing from our beekeeper tomorrow :)
