Over a year ago, Fruition Seeds in Naples, NY, chose to shift away from consumerism and embrace gift economy practices. All flourishing is mutual, as Robin Wall Kimmerer reminds us, and seeds brilliantly embody this generosity, creativity and care.

Join with members of the Survive and Thrive Team and Petra Page-Mann of Fruition Seeds to practice receiving hundreds of varieties of regionally adapted vegetable and flower seeds as gifts, cultivating gift culture as well as community. Come ready to reflect, connect and honor your gifts  as we all learn to amplify the gifts of community together. Expect puppets! And lots of seeds! And to come alive as we explore living in ways both old and new. Bring a friend and hunger to sow more fruitful futures for your family, friends, neighbors and strangers as well as all generations yet to come.
