Organic Seed Alliance will be participating in the Culinary Breeding Network’s Variety Showcase 2026.
From the Culinary Breeding Network:
The Variety Showcase is a public tasting and community-building event produced by the Culinary Breeding Network and Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming. The event is dedicated to illuminating the importance of organic seed and advancing a more inclusive plant-breeding process that engages everyone across the food system.
Chefs will collaborate directly with plant breeders and farmers to create dishes featuring specific cultivars and in-development breeding lines. Guests will have the rare opportunity to taste new and emerging vegetable, grain, and fruit varieties while learning about the seed work behind them — work grounded in values such as climate resilience, culinary quality, nutrition, biodiversity, cultural heritage, and seed sovereignty.
Designed to break down the walls between eaters and breeders, the Variety Showcase invites open conversation, shared opinions, and hands-on engagement. Farmers, seed growers, chefs, bakers, distillers, retailers, distributors, and curious eaters alike are welcome. The event aims to spark joy, discovery, and meaningful connection.
