10-Year Anniversary
The Bauta Family Initiative was launched in 2013 to support Canadian farmers to increase the quality, quantity, and diversity of seeds they save, adapt, and breed. We're celebrating our 10-year anniversary by sharing stories about the incredible work that has been happening in our seed movement, thanks to the ingenuity, commitment, and passion of farmers who care about seed.
