No, SEEDS OF CHANGE products do not contain Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). The National Organic Program (NOP) standard prohibits the use of genetically modified organisms (defined in the standards as “excluded methods”) in organic operations. A genetically modified organism is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using techniques in genetics generally known as “recombinant DNA technology.” Recombinant DNA technology is the ability to combine DNA molecules from different sources into the one molecule in a test tube. SEEDS OF CHANGE seeds and the crops in which our food products are derived from are developed through natural selection and breeding techniques.
