Panel Discussion: Seed Supply Issues for Vallonia Nursery

This is for the seeds we know we can purchase from local seed vendors throughout Indiana. Seeds that are historically purchased from vendors outside the state are purchased in a different manner. Typically, with the number of collectors that participate in our Seedbuy Program, only the scarcity of the seeds in the areas of collection would keep us from meeting our seed quotas within the state. Minor adjustments are made during the collection process to the individual quotas if a species is abundant and another is scarce. Revisions are made based upon site locations as to where the trees typically are grown. Our overall production goal is achieved, with slight changes made to the original goal of individual species.
