Conserves and shares the seeds of the people of the desert Southwest and Mexico so that these arid-adapted crops may benefit communities and nourish a changing world.
We envision a future where arid-adapted and traditional crops are abundant in the gardens, farms, and kitchens of our region; where Indigenous seeds are in the hands of Indigenous growers, and all communities are supported in keeping their unique seeds and agricultural heritages alive.
Our mission is not just the preservation of seeds for the future, but also their distribution today, prioritizing communities of our desert region who have stewarded the seeds for time immemorial.
