We absolutely encourage people to start small with seed banking if they have limited resources. Even with a small space, low-tech equipment, and a little background knowledge, seed banking can be a wonderful tool to store seeds for the future. Every bit of work done to preserve Earth’s precious resources can contribute to a better future for our planet!
However, while anyone is welcome to take our courses, our primary audience is people and organizations who are ready to begin seed banking at a larger scale — to support reforestation projects at a larger scale. As our CEO, Yishan Wong, says, “We believe that mass forest restoration is still the most practical and immediately scalable way for the entire world to reach net zero before it is too late.” This urgency is why our training courses are aimed at larger-scale conservation and restoration techniques to address this global need for rapidly scaling up our efforts.
