But where does that supply of planting material come from? The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northwoodscenter.org\/wordpress\/\">NorthWoods Stewardship Center<\/a> in the town of East Charleston in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont has a direct seeding project in the works. Direct seeding means to put the seeds of native trees and shrubs directly in the ground at the planting site instead of planting young seedlings. A crew collects and preps wild collected seeds and tests methods to improve the process. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\tIn the December episode of the Restoration Roundup podcast called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uvm.edu\/seagrant\/watershed-forestry-partnership\/restoration-roundup-podcast\/starting-seed\">Starting from Seed<\/a>, hear from Jess Colby, Rob Fitch, and Rhona Thomson about collecting wild seeds for riparian restoration projects. Jess is the Riparian Projects and Forestry Outreach Coordinator with NorthWoods, and Rob and Rhona worked on the seed collecting crew this past spring, summer, and fall.
