Seed Savers Exchange

Ninety-eight percent of seeds sold in the United States are now sold by Monsanto.  Of course, they won't be labeled as Monsanto seeds, they'll be sold under the names American Seeds, Inc., Johnny's, Cooks and Territorial, among others.  It's a pretty safe bet that if you're not sure it… Read full post »

GMO's = Death Crops? Part III

How are you feeling about your food these days?

GMO's = Death Crops? Part II

Did you know that fully 2/3rds of all processed food in the United States now contain genetically modified ingredients?  I don’t know about you but that fully scares the hell out of me.

GMO's = Death Crops? Part I
