Collecting Stories & Connecting Voices to Strengthen Freedom of Seeds for All
A project to document alternative seed approaches implemented across Europe, by the Agricultural and Rural Convention - ARC2020
Seeds4All is dedicated to promoting seed diversity and sovereignty as key building blocks for a sustainable food future and thriving rural communities. We focus on recording and promoting ecological, non-industrial seed practices being carried out across Europe, from alternative farming methods to cooperative models of economic development and community-driven knowledge-sharing.
Our goal? To support farmers, food producers and communities in growing and accessing diversified, value-creating seed systems.
Our approach? Spotlighting the challenges and opportunities around seeds, connecting people and ideas, inspiring action in the fields!
