Seeds


Seeds are life. It has always amazed me, this miracle of growth, transformation and manifestation. Seeds represent new life, birth. Without seeds, nothing would exist. From such a tiny object, something as majestic and massive as the Giant Redwoods of California, are born. Each with a purpose and a link to every ecosystem on earth. Seeds are to be treasured, they are more special than we realize. Already seeds have been patented. Huge corporations are capitalizing on- and monopolizing those precious gifts from nature.

Already there is too much mass control of which seeds to buy, how to grow them, quantities thereof and how much they yield. Many seed-banks offer seeds - especially for commercial farming - that produce fruits and flowers whose seeds are sterile. Just so you can go and buy more! If you have plants that produce usable seeds, keep them and look after them. Treasure them! Watch this space and follow the birth, growth and flowering of our beautiful sunflowers.
