Seed Savers Survey
Canadian gardeners – our first survey is for you!
We are surveying farmers and gardeners to understand the challenges, opportunities and needs of individuals and organizations working to build a resilient and sustainable Canadian seed system.
Do the survey and turn 30 minutes of your time into generations of good food in Canada.
A collaborative research effort of the Australian Centre for Cultural Environmental Studies at the University of Wollongong (Australia) and the Bauta Initiative on Canadian Seed Security, a project of USC Canada delivered in partnership with Seeds of Diversity Canada and supported by the W.
