You have the power to protect our Seed Heritage - Join The Sacred Seeds Challenge

Global climate change, loss of habitat, aggressive agricultural practices, pollution, over-harvesting and the loss of generational medicinal wisdom are threatening our culturally and scientifically significant plant species, and the medicinal wisdom that surrounds them. Without intervention, we could be facing a dramatic global loss of biodiversity.

In response, New Chapter, Organic Gardening, and the William L. Brown Center at the Missouri Botanical Garden have joined together to create the Sacred Seeds project, a world-wide network of seed sanctuaries devoted to
preserving biodiversity and plant knowledge.

Ethne Clarke, Editor-In-Chief for Organic Gardening, and Tom Newmark, CEO of New Chapter, unite at Luna Nueva in Costa Rica, home of the first Sacred Seeds garden.
