Elderberry Collection Workshop

Daly City, CA
Yoni Carnice, Ariel Cherbowsky, and Chris Chou
Winter 2021

 

We hosted an interactive seed collection workshop where we began the process of propagating red elderberry (Sambucus racemosa) for the San Bruno Mountain Test Plot. The workshop included an exploration of the test plot garden site and nearby Colma Creek Headwaters and a step by step guide to processing the seed. The seeds are currently undergoing stratification to initiate the germination process and will be sowed into the test plot in the winter. 

A propagation guide zine was made for the event, which can be found here
