Our Alliance

Finding Solidarity in Our Alliance

Organic Seed Alliance is not a membership organization. We are an Alliance. We are built of partnerships and create spaces for these partnerships to emerge and thrive outside our influence. Any individual or organization whose work, values, vision, or sense of shared responsibility aligns with ours (however imperfectly) is part of this Alliance, whether we’ve been working together for years or have yet to meet.

Our commonality is the seed that we steward for the generations to come. Our crops may be different. Our paths of stewardship may twist and bend at different points. We might disagree with each other at times. But we build relationships through our work, our values, and our shared responsibility to seed. These relationships, whether constantly aligned or often debating, form our Alliance. We’re grateful to be doing this work built on these partnerships, because we know that we can do so much more together to ensure seed stays in the hands of the many rather than the few.

The mission of Organic Seed Alliance – the work of teaching farmers to save, grow, and improve seed, and advocating for policies that support their success – is imperative now more than ever. And working in solidarity with you, our Alliance, is the only way to get it done.

Be sure to stay in touch by receiving our quarterly newsletter, joining us at an upcoming event, and following us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
