Sharing the Harvest

.

 
 

On the left, it looks like the sunflower seeds have already been collected by the birds.  Cosmos (right) and Cleome (bottom right) seeds are easy to spot on the plants.  Let them drop to the  ground and you will always have new plants the following spring. The students label the envelops as they collect the seeds.

The seeds are only stored in the envelopes temporarily.  Volunteers take them home and spread them out to dry.  Late winter, the classes package the seeds in small manila envelopes that are then encased in the Granny seed envelops that they make by hand.
