THEY MADE IT ILLEGAL FOR FARMERS TO SAVE SEEDS. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN KNOWN HUMAN HISTORY, A CORPORATION CAN SUE YOU FOR DOING WHAT FARMERS HAVE DONE FOR CENTURIES.
Saving seeds, a practice as old as agriculture itself, is now a crime. For millennia, farmers have selected their best seeds to ensure future harvests, safeguarding food security and biodiversity. But Monsanto's patented seeds have turned this tradition into a legal battlefield.
Here's the jaw-dropper: Monsanto spends nearly $10 million a year on "seed police" to hunt down farmers using their patented genetics. Over 400 small family farms have faced lawsuits, often because seeds drifted from neighboring fields. Control the seeds, control the food system.
The antidote? Choose heirloom seeds from companies that vow never to patent their genetics. These businesses, aligned with the Open Source Seed Initiative, ensure seeds remain free for all to save and share. Every seed you plant is a stand for food freedom.
