We are a very, very small non-profit working with a shoestring budget especially since Seedy Saturday –our major fundraiser- was cancelled.  We rely on your donations and our amazing volunteers to help us grow, harvest, clean and package these seeds of hope.

We don’t sell our seeds because we acknowledge and respect that they are living beings

We believe that the price on a seed packet represents the work that goes into growing, harvesting, cleaning and packaging the seeds before they get to you! 

Local seed companies usually request a minimum of $3.50 per seed packet for their expertise and the labour that goes into producing high quality local seeds that grow well right here where we live. We encourage you to support them! 

We want you to have the locally-adapted open-pollinated seeds from our Living Seed Commons if you agree to grow them for food and seeds to save and share with others!

Our seeds are available on a sliding scale donation.  Your generous donations will help us to  continue our work so that we can continue to share the varieties in our Living Seed Commons with everyone in our region.

We are grateful for the support that we receive from so many caring individuals who donate and volunteer their time to save and share these precious seeds. 

We appreciate your patience as we learn how to manage in an online world.
