Chapters in Michigan

Seed collection time is winding down and the weather is getting colder. It is time to make heads or tails of the seeds that we have all collected over the past months in preparation for winter sowing which is just a few months away!

This workshop is intended for anyone and everyone regardless of experience, or whether or not you've collected seeds of your own! We will have plenty of seeds to process and share. If you currently have seeds that need to be processed of your own, feel free to bring them along and we can take time to process them together.

In addition to processing seeds, we can take the opportunity of being together to share seeds with each other. This is a chance to look for seeds that you haven't had a chance to grow before. If you have extra seeds, WOWC Seeds to Community will be accepting donations of seeds which will made be available during the 2026 sowing and growing season. 

While this event is free, donations help us continue offering programs like this throughout the year. Any contribution, big or small, helps in our efforts to share native plants and knowledge with the community.

Registration is required as space is limited. Please follow the registration link provided below.

The year 2025 was filled with informative and inspiring activity for the membership of the Ann Arbor Area Chapter of Wild Ones. Join us over Zoom for a pictorial review of the gardens we visited, the things we learned, and the people we learned from. See what we created in our own community. Get a glimpse of our chapter’s accomplishments and those of the larger Wild Ones organization of which we are a part.  Members will have the chance to provide input, via the Zoom chat function, on next year's activities and topics. Together, we are working towards a healthier planet by fostering thriving local ecosystems featuring native plants and natural landscapes. 

Presenters

Ann Arbor Area Wild Ones Board members Marta Manildi, Bob Hauser, and Loris Damerow

Planting season will be here in no time! At this meeting we will explore some useful internet resources with two goals: to learn more about plants native to Michigan and to choose the right plants for your gardening situation. Bring your favorite device (phone, tablet or laptop) as this will be an interactive and collaborative meeting.

Wild Ones member Deb Pruitt has gathered together some fantastic resources to help all of us in our native plant educational journeys.
