Monsanto-Free Seed Companies

As I was racking my brain trying to think of something original to post here, I noticed that Annie from Country Living in a Cariboo Valley had a very important post that merited sharing with you. She links to a blog called Occupy Monsanto. They explain, "As Monsanto has occupied our farms and foods, it's time we take them back". Mmm...I like the sound of that!

The website lists Monsanto-free seed companies in the U.S. and Canada, and a couple from Europe. And beware of those seedlings you might purchase from garden centers:

"If you are the type of gardener who purchases vegetable seeds or seedlings, including tomato plants from a local garden center, be mindful the varieties you choose. Conversely, you might be placing money into the hands of Monsanto Corporation."

Make sure you know where your seeds and seedlings are coming from!
