Organic garden seeds are pedigreed varieties that come from a time prior to the use of pesticides and herbicides. They are the horticulturalists equivalent of the priceless jewelry or works of art passed down from one generation to another. Most organic garden seeds are from strains at least 50 years old; of them are nearly as old as the United States itself. These are not always free seeds, but they are the best if you can afford them and because you can preserve them, they can be considered free seeds after the first harvest.

Unlike hybrid or Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) seeds, organic garden seeds are natural, and can be collected and re-used for years. Hybrid seeds are produced by splicing together at least two separate varieties. GMO seeds may contain genes from non-plant species for example, there is a GMO tomato strain that incorporates the anti-freeze traits of an arctic fish in order to make it frost-resistant.

Yes, there are advantages to GMO free seeds. However, we dont know enough about genetic science to understand fully the trade-offs involved in such modifications, particularly with respect to the health impact on those who eat GMO foods. Who wants suppertime to be a science experiment with the diners used as guinea pigs? Besides, organic, non-GMO organic garden seeds yield produce that simply tastes more like food; they have the full flavor many of us remember from our youth. Organic garden seeds may cost a little more up front, but in the long run theyre free seeds when looked at in terms of cost-to-benefit ratio.
