Propagate 1. breed specimens of (a plant or animal) by natural processes from the parent stock.

2. spread and promote (an idea, theory, etc.) widely.

Our workshop is activity orientated with an aim to promote the discussion of important affairs within in a comfortable and natural enviroment.

This is in response to soceity avoiding difficult subjects and only discussing them within an formal setting.

In our workshop we will use plants to show how an idea can spread and grow through care and nurture.

The workshop will run in 3 different stages.

We will invite people in small groups to come and plant their own seed.

People will display their seeds on the shelf within the space.

The next day people can return to the space to view a video from the day, see this publication and collect their pot.
