Seed Saving

Seed Saving

Here is an interesting post about the need and indeed the importance of saving seeds.  Let's hope as many people as possible take this on board and save precious seeds for generations to come.


  • “Open Sesame” shows the importance of saving heirloom and open-pollination seeds, which are threatened by agrichemical monopolies, GMOs, and gene patenting
  • More than 93 percent of the variety in our food seeds has been lost as large multi-national corporations have swallowed up smaller seed suppliers
  • Saving your own seeds, as well as obtaining seeds from seed swaps and exchanges, can help preserve what precious diversity remains
