I know that this perfection is only realised through the seeds' interaction with all aspects of a particular environment - of which the gardener is a major element. I send out across the continent may be robust, but I know they can become more so when gardeners enter into an enduring relationship with them that allows their growing to be co-creative. Saving our own seed restores agricultural creativity and genius to what was until recent times. Seed saving fosters sustainability by fulfilling a basic need at home, instead of relying on seed companies and governments. Dan Jason, Salt Spring Seeds.
Seed is a living link to the past, present and future.
Seeds hold energy and knowledge vital to our life-support system. Saving seeds and nuturing plants teaches us about life processes, as we pay attention to cycles and the changing seasons. Seed is becoming more of a precious resource as access to whole seeds of organic, diverse varieties becomes difficult. Seeds provide a freedom, an autonomy which is being denied by transnational trade agreements, patent laws and terminator technology . Primal seeds are uncontaminated by corporate science.
