Safe Seed Pledge

OUR PLEDGE TO YOU

Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.

For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.

We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.

We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds. We don't touch that stuff and we never will.

The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center.

Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated). Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.

To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.

Genetically modified (GM) seeds have been genetically altered in a lab somewhere and have had specific changes introduced into their DNA, also called Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's).

Customer Feedback:
When I received these, I stored them in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks. Then I got them out and popped them in a bucket of water, planning to plant them in an hour or two. Several days later and still in the bucket of water outside, I got to plant them. I figured I had killed them but they still looked good. \nTHEY SPROUTED!! There were only a few very thin sprouts, but this is the first year so I wasn’t expecting a harvest. After all the abuse and neglect, these larger, strong crowns did Seeds Now proud.

My asparagus plants arrived quickly. I put them in their bed about a week later. Now, about a month later, all 25 crowns have emerged, some about 2 feet in the air, some a few inches, but they are all accounted for.
