Planting Seeds: Building Intergenerational and Cross-Cultural Community Through the Urban Gardens

José Spellman-Lopez grew up in Los Angeles and was intrigued by gardening/growing things so he found his way to OSU to have opportunities that he didn't have to connect with nature in LA. He will present on how he goes about "planting seeds" to build intergenerational and cross-cultural community.When not in a garden, you can find Jose, his wife Corrie, and their dog Boone walking the many city parks, hiking along various trails, and replicating delicious recipes.

Presented in partnership with the Eugene Public Library Foundation and Eugene Public Library, all lecture series events are free and open to the public, and begin at 12pm using Zoom on the second Friday of each month. The Zoom room will open at 11:45am. Advanced registration is required by 10am the day of the event.
