Activities

Conservation, education, and seasonal work.

We balance seed conservation, hands-on workshops, volunteer field studies, and community exchanges so lilies stay healthy and the knowledge spreads.

What we do

Hands-on care, shared knowledge.

Habitat & Genetics

Seed banking and cold frame management keep Martagon and species lilies resilient.

We maintain layered beds, record germination rates, and track pollen parentage for the rarest entries.

Workshops & Tours

Seasonal classes cover planting depth, disease scouting, and shade gardening fundamentals.

Small group visits highlight Martagon lore, and workshop notes are shared via the resource library.

Bioregional Research

Volunteer-led surveys document wild populations, bloom timing, and pollinator behavior.

Field notes include GPS coordinates, soil texture, and a spring-to-fall calendar of visits.

Seed & Stories

Seed exchanges and story circles keep heritage lilies in circulation.

Neighbors log planting successes and share cut flower recipes after each exchange.
