Palestine Heirloom Seed Library

In 2014, I founded the Palestine Heirloom Seed Library. The library works to find and preserve ancient seed varieties and traditional farming practices. The Library and associated El Beir Arts and Seeds symbolize this core belief: that agriculture is truly comprised of both “agri” (traditional farming practices) + “culture” (the associated lifestyle/livelihood traditions essential to a community’s identity).
