Annual Report

2016 Annual Report

Learn about our most recent successes thanks to the support of our valued donors and funders.

We hosted a record turnout at our 8th Organic Seed Growers Conference, and released four new publications to help farmers and researchers grow seed and breed new varieties for organic systems. We also participated in the Intellectual Property Rights for Public Plant Breeding Summit in Washington, DC, to develop tools for releasing publicly developed seed and funding public plant breeding.
