Plant givewaway a huge success!

April 26, 2014 Shannon Welles

Thank you to all who came out today to the free plant event at the Howell Collective. We gave away about 250 plants in 30 minutes!!! I'll be posting pictures soon, as well as information on select plants. Please check back!

The Hypha free nursery

This is a community project to spread plants and ideas through Seattle. Plants are propagated and given away as gifts with instructions on care and how to propagate them further. The intent is to grow a community of decentralized networks of plant sharing.

This project also incorporates artmaking, storytelling, and ethnobotany to provide cultural context and connection to the plants that comprise our landscape. Select plants will be mapped to show the spread through Seattle and illustrate the potential of such networks.
