A SEED GROWERS NETWORK
If you are a gardener and would like to contribute toward
future food security in the Bitterroot Valley, please consider adopting a
crop. Locally adapted, heirloom seeds are a very valuable asset that can
contribute to the future well being of our communities. This valuable
resource must be regularly planted in the ground to renew its vigor.
Information regarding what you need to know in order to keep your adopted crop
pure and genetically rich can be provided by the growers below.
We specialize in seeds for crops that are acclimated for this
area, are open-pollinated, non-gmo, not patented, and that also would be a valuable crop for a local food system.
Below is
a list of seeds held by some of the seed savers in the network. We look
forward to working with you if you have an interest in producing and saving
seeds.
If you
just want to purchase seed here are Jill's Seeds that are for sale:
