Project Green Foot & Southern Exposure Educational Series
This summer, Project Green Foot is thrilled to partner with Southern Exposure Seed Exchange to launch a powerful new educational series as a fundraiser for our organization! These series are designed to help you grow more food, save seed, and reconnect with the land.
Rooted in our mission to protect biodiversity, promote food sovereignty, and restore ecological balance, this series brings together expert voices, ancestral wisdom, and hands-on seasonal guidance to help both new and experienced growers thrive.
Each session offers practical skills and regenerative growing practices aligned with the seasons, empowering you to plant with purpose, harvest with confidence, and steward your garden (and the planet) more intentionally. Our series will be guided by one of Southeast’s most respected voices in organic gardening: Ira Wallace.
Ira Wallace is a seed saver, writer, and co-founder of the Heritage Harvest Festival at Monticello. She lives and gardens at Acorn Community Farm in Virginia, home of Southern Exposure Seed Exchange. Ira is also a board member of the Organic Seed Alliance and a frequent speaker at the Mother Earth News Fairs and garden conferences nationwide. Her work is deeply rooted in sustainability, education, and equitable access to healthy food and seed systems.

Each week, we collaborate with local organic farmers to redirect high-quality, unsold, and surplus produce that would otherwise go to waste.
The produce is then hand-packed into Harvest Bags and made available to the public on a flexible, no-subscription basis.

This is a talk and demo about using your organoleptic (sensory) experiences to be able to understand herbalism in an empirical and intuitive way. In many ways our bodies can identify and communicate to us about our needed minerals and molecules, sometimes better and more effectively than our intellect.
Natalie will guide you through a somatic tea tasting that focuses your attention to perceive subtle shifts and communications from the body about what you are tasting.
Join us for a somatic tea tasting that will deepen your understanding of herbalism.
