Why Save Seeds

1. Diversity: Saving seeds increases community access to an incredible variety of crops that cannot often be found in grocery stores, & are becoming increasingly rare on an international scale.

3. Preservation: Heirloom seeds contain the history of farming within them. Saving seeds helps protect that knowledge as well as the unique crops they produce.
4. Health: Growing and saving your own seeds gives us control over our food straight from the source. You can be sure it is safe for you, your community and the environment.
