The Academy of Natural Sciences Presents: Plants and Seeds with Nate Kleinman of Experimental Farm Networks

Saturday, November 14, 2026 November 14, 2026 The Logan Philadelphia Hotel

Join Nate Kleinman, co-founder of the Experimental Farm Network (EFN), to meet (see, smell and taste!) a wide variety of culturally significant plants and participate in a guided introduction to seed-saving techniques. Kleinman will also share sustainable approaches to plant breeding, crop domestication and regional adaptation as tools for resilience in the face of climate change.

The Experimental Farm Network (EFN), a Philadelphia-based non-profit cooperative, works to facilitate collaborative plant breeding and sustainable agriculture research in order to fight global climate change, preserve the natural environment and ensure food security for humanity into the distant future. EFN also runs a small seed company to make important crop varieties, landraces and breeding populations available to farmers and gardeners and to support small farmers and independent plant breeders.

Registration is not required for this program. Participants may drop in anytime between 1 and 3 p.m. to participate.
