Renny Grilz’s Nuffield Canada Agricultural Scholarship project
This presentation builds on insights from Renny Grilz’s Nuffield Canada Agricultural Scholarship project, which explores native seed producer networks and seedbanking in Europe and North America. Meewasin Valley Authority is investigating the potential to establish a native plant seedbank in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to support prairie conservation and restoration in Western Canada. The goal of the seedbank will be to preserve genetic diversity while enhancing ecosystem resilience and provide critical resources for restoration. Inspired by global best practices, future efforts will focus on partnerships with seed producers, landowners, and conservation groups, developing robust collection and storage protocols, and addressing regional ecological challenges.
