We at the Vancouver Seed Bank are devoted to collecting and preserving useful seed varieties from around the globe, and making those seeds available to anyone who needs them.
We believe that seeds and plants are part of the common heritage of all people, and that every human has the right to grow any plant they wish.
We oppose the patenting of living things, the genetic modification of plants, and especially the creation os so-called "terminator" seeds. We believe that breeding and careful selection are the keys to developing new plant strains.
We also oppose the war on drugs which aims to exterminate many of the world's most useful plants. We believe that entheogenic and psychoactive plants are among the world's most sacred treasures, and should be preserved, not destroyed.
