Seed Companies and Monsanto
There was some misinformation in a recent PCC newsletter regarding Monsanto purchasing many of your favorite garden and farm seed catalogs. Territorial Seeds, Johnny's Seeds, Park Seed, Burpee, Cook's Garden, Spring Hill Nurseries, Flower of the Month Club, and Audubon Workshop are NOT owned by Monsanto. PCC has now corrected their error here.

There is a lot of misinformation and emotion with any discussion of seeds. GMO and otherwise. This discussion has helped create new markets for sellers of heirloom and traditional seeds. If issue is near and dear to you, your best option to protect these kind of seeds is with your pocket book.
