What do seeds mean to you? In today’s episode we’re talking with Jennifer Jewell, host of the Cultivating Place podcast and author of the new book, What We Sow: On the Personal, Ecological and Cultural Significance of Seeds.

We'll be discussing Jennifer's personal journey with seeds, the significant impact that seeds have on the world around us and why saving these precious seeds for future generations is more important now than ever before.
