Nashville, TN (PRWEB) October 14, 2013 -- According to an Oct. 8, 2013, article in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, a farmer in the eastern portion of the state of Washington said he grew and tried to sell alfalfa that he did not know had been genetically modified.
He said the seeds were planted in the fall of 2010 and that GMO seeds were not approved by the federal government until January 2011. The farmer said that he is making this information public in order to warm other farmers to test the crops that they believe are not genetically modified to ensure that they are not.
After samples of his crop and seeds were tested by the Agriculture Department, it was determined that there was a low-level presence of a genetic trait called Round-Up Ready. While this seed is legal in the U.S., it is not popular overseas and many brokers will not accept it for export.
SurvivalSeeds4Patriots applauds this farmer for his openness and for his warning to other farmers. The company also recommends that people use only open-pollinated, non-hybrid, non-genetically modified, heirloom seeds.
Providing a path to independence and self-sufficiency, SurvivalSeeds4Patriots offers the Liberty Seed Vault. The air-tight metal storage container includes more than 5,400 heirloom seeds from 21 varieties of vegetables including broccoli, spinach, carrots, squash, corn, tomatoes, onions, beets and zucchini. Each order is accompanied by four guides and a 100 percent money-back guarantee.
After growing and enjoying these nutritious vegetables, gardeners can use the seeds from the harvest for next year’s crops, so they never have to buy seeds again. The company says that this strategy provides additional benefits because it allows people to be less affected by food shortages and increasing food prices.
Patriot Headquarters publishes articles, videos and news to help patriots become more self-reliant and independent from government and big business.
