Organic Seed Alliance is a US-based nonprofit that advances ethical seed solutions to meet food and farming needs in a changing world. OSA’s work ensures an abundant and diverse supply of ecologically grown seed, tended in perpetuity by skilled and diverse communities of seed stewards. To advance this mission, we serve growers working with seed at any scale through participatory research, practical education, policy advocacy, and network development. Join our online seed community at organicseedcommons.org, search our resources at seedalliance.org and read recommendations for advancing organic seed at stateoforganicseed.org

SeedHeads is the cross-pollinating podcast where our Canadian seed heroes tell their stories, share their “how to” tips, and talk about the seeds they love. Join Steph Benoit and Hugo Martorell as they host conversations that are both technically useful and personally inspiring, as guests share the myriad ways that seeds are at the centre of our lives as growers and eaters. If you’re interested in hearing from people who are passionate about saving, stewarding, and sharing seed, subscribe to SeedHeads in your favourite podcast app or go to SEEDSECURITY.CA and get started with seasons 1 and 2 of SeedHeads today. SeedHeads is a podcast inspired by Canadian seed growers, and hosted by The Bauta Family Initiative on Canadian Seed Security — a program of SeedChange. Season 3 is coming in 2022, as always, with episodes in French and English.
