Botanist and herbalist Latifa Pelletier-Ahmed joins Steph Benoit to explore what it means to grow, save, and share native seed in a time of ecological loss and renewal.
Latifa shares her path from studying herbal medicine and ethnobotany in England to co-running ALCLA Native Plants—one of Canada’s few nurseries dedicated entirely to native species. She describes taking over a 30-year legacy of prairie conservation and how wild seed production differs from domesticated agriculture. Together they discuss how restoring native plants is hands-on climate action anyone can take.
