In this episode, we're talking about seeds. Yeah, the little things we (meaning farmers) use to grow the entirety of our food supply.

Seeds are interesting because seed genetics contain information that helps the plants thrive, produce fruit and even more seeds. However, thanks to corporate consolidation, seeds have become a commodity, ripe for manipulation, control and economic gain...but for whom?

We all know "whom"...but seeds are also intrinsically connected to family legacies, food sovereignty, food history and culture.

So, what happens to all that when more than 70% of the global seed market is controlled by just 10 corporations?

Listen and find out. Thanks for sharing this episode with someone you love!
