A couple of seed catalogs came during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season and I put them aside for later browsing. But now they’re arriving fast and furiously and they’re begging for my time to have a look at what I might want to grow this year in the garden.
Now here’s where I get on my soapbox about seed companies bragging that they don’t sell GMO seeds. Of course they don’t, because guess what? GMO seeds aren’t available to the general public. Hybrids are, and that’s not the same thing. We’ve been growing hybrids for decades, centuries even.
NO seed available to you as a home gardener is GMO. Period. So if a company you buy from is stating that they don’t sell GMOs, it’s no big deal and they don’t really need to say that. But there’s a lot of false information about GMOs out there, so these seed companies are likely saying this just in case gardeners are concerned (needlessly).
