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 reproductive
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 people and communities."
Using
simple techniques and good
design the author grows and
eats abundant fresh food 12
months of the year in Maine.
An excellent resource for
cold climate gardeners, with
crop profiles and a step-by-step
illustration of methods.
