Thank you for getting active!

Save our Seeds, a campaign supported by many different organisations in Europe, is committed to the establishment of strict purity standards for seeds and the accurate labelling of contamination with genetically modified organisms (more about the initiative here). The initiative focuses on the legislation within the European Union and its member states, especially on the attempts of the European Commission to raise labelling thresholds for "GMO-free" seeds by proposing a new Seed Directive.
