Knowing that in our present geopolitical state, many seed companies, which have provided the non-hybrid and open-pollinated varieties, are no longer in business and/or are producing hybrid varieties mainly for the commercial growers, South Sound Seed Stewards has organized for the purpose of: - Encouraging community independence and self-reliance through producing and sharing locally-adapted, open-pollinated seeds.
- Providing for the home gardener an educational resource in sustainable gardening.
- Protecting and collecting the seed from our non-hybrid, open- pollinated varieties
- Creating a Seed Bank of non-hybrid, open-pollinated seeds which have been acclimated to our region.
