Join the Southeast Organic Seed Movement

With its long growing season and rich farming history, the Southeast region has great potential to strengthen its organic seed system. But what are the key actions we can take to help a burgeoning Southeastern network?

As a first step, OSA is working with several local partners to assess the organic seed system in the Southeast and to identify collaborative opportunities to expand and improve this system. We have developed an online questionnaire to help map the state of the Southeastern organic seed system and to identify priorities for strengthening it.

Obtaining feedback from stakeholders is vital to this assessment process. Thus far, more than 500 people have participated in the survey. If you are involved in agriculture in the Southeast, please take ten minutes to complete the questionnaire. Your responses are voluntary and will be held confidential.

You can access the survey here.
