where to buy non gm seed????????//

[chicks for better health]

I am looking for non GM seed to plant my small pastures. I would like to plant tall grasses, grains, and or corn. I will be planting a few acres.

Please let me know if you know where I can purchase, and how to tell if it is GM.

Thanks

look for companies that have taken and clearly post "the safe seed pledge"

"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 that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproduction methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats. We feel that genetically engineered varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public release. More research and testing is necessary to further assess the potential risks of genetically engineered seeds. Further, we wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities."

Shumways still sells many OP varieties, most of which are available in 50 lb bags.

Baker's creek, they test thier seed annually before it's released.

While you're at it the piel de sappo melon is by far the best thing I've ever put in my mouth.
