At this event, you’ll hear the latest findings from trials on lettuce, tomato, squash, and brassica seed crops, get a preview of the free seed yield database, and connect with researchers and fellow growers working to strengthen our organic food system from the seed up. Whether you’re a seasoned seed producer or just getting started, this is your chance to plug into one of the most exciting research initiatives in organic agriculture today.
Discover how the OSPREY Project (Organic Seed Production Research on Economics and Yield) is transforming organic seed production across the country. Led by Organic Seed Alliance and a network of university and farm partners spanning 17+ states, OSPREY is tackling the real barriers organic farmers face — unpredictable seed yields, shifting weather patterns, and limited access to equipment — through hands-on research, multi-location crop trials, and free tools built for growers.
