Harvest Haven: A Seed Catalogue for Sangham Seed Banks
‘Harvest Haven: Seeds of Diversity’ is a seed catalog documentation effort undertaken to capture the rich local knowledge on seeds and crop diversity of DDS sangham women. From the weather needed to sow, to the kinds of foods that can be cooked, the book captures multiple values and context of each crop variety. It is a testament to the ingenuity of living practical knowledge that holds entirely different values and vision for a kind of agriculture, that is fast vanishing away from our villages and agrarian landscapes. The publication was released on January 14th, 2025 on the occasion of opening ceremony of 25th Mobile Biodiversity Festival.
