Plant Breeding Projects Virtual Showcase

Canadian farmers are responsible for the creation and stewardship of so much plant diversity on their farms. In this webinar, farmers from coast to coast share about their on-farm plant breeding projects, including Swiss chard, lettuce, tomatoes, sweet peppers, radish, and zucchini, talking about their inspiration, methods, fails, and progress in creating new biodiversity on the farm.This virtual event was recorded on January 30, 2024 by our partner, The Bauta Family Initiative on Canadian Seed Security, a program of SeedChange. Speakers: Fiona Hamersley (Metchosin Seeds, BC), Craig Boychuk (No Coast Seeds, SK), Dan Brisebois (Ferme Tournesol Farm QC), Chris Sanford (Yonder Hill Farm, NS).
