Organic Seed Alliance

We envision a world where organic seed grows an equitable, abundant, and resilient future of food for all.

WHY ORGANIC SEED? 

Organic seed is how we farm, it’s what we eat, and it’s what we wear. It’s how we use natural resources. It’s how we adapt. It’s how we impact our environment. It’s how we impact human health. It’s not just organic seed, it’s how we support agricultural resilience. It’s the foundation of organic integrity and an essential component to furthering the principles underpinning the organic movement.

WHAT DOES Organic Seed Alliance DO?

Organic Seed Alliance (OSA) puts the power of seed in the hands of growers. Our work promotes an abundant and diverse supply of organic seed, tended in perpetuity by skilled, diverse, and interconnected communities of seed stewards.
