We are strengthening the network of collectors in Colíder, sharing technical and traditional knowledge about collecting native seeds. 🌍💚
With instructions on collection techniques, identification of matrices, collection times and storage, given by a technician from the Portal da Amazônia Seed Network, the collectors from Casa de Sementes Norma carried out a community seed collection in a legal reserve forest area in the municipality of Colíder.
Some of the seeds collected are being commercialised by Casa de Sementes Norma Nobre through COOPERSAF, while others have been given to the Amazonas Institute for the production of native seedlings to be used in agroecological plantings. 🌱🤝
Unfortunately, however, the fires are affecting the seed collection areas, destroying the matrices and pollinators.
