WHAT WE DO
four areas of work
The Bauta Family Initiative on Canadian Seed Security works in partnership with organic and agro-ecological seed producers and farmers to advance agricultural biodiversity across Canada.
connect locally
Our program has regional hubs in 5 offices across Canada. That’s where you’ll find local training and networking events, local and like-minded people, and projects and programs that are running in your area.
find seeds
Good Food Begins with Good Seed. Find the best locally adapted seeds in your region using Seeds of Diversity’s Seed Finder.
find community
If you are a seed saver, Seed Keeper, part of a seed organization, seed swap, library, or community garden, visit the Community Seed Network to connect with your people!
grow out seeds
Growing out seed crops means seeing their full life cycle - from seed to seed. A seed grow-out tells you what varieties perform well in organic settings, it can be a tool for seed conservation, and a great way to learn the craft.
