<p title=”temporary paragraph, click here to add a new paragraph”>December and January is a time of rest in the gardens at SESE.  I spend a lot of time reading new gardening books, looking through seed catalogs and increasingly often following up on emails about seeds and gardening.</p>

<p>Yesterday, I received an email with <a href=”http://blog.seedalliance.org/2011/12/18/the-promising-potential-of-open-pollinated-corn/”>OSA’s response</a> to a New York Times Blog post that perpetuates the misinformation and half truths about organic seed.  I felt inspired for the coming season reading about the potential and importance of maintaining our heritage of open-pollinated varieties, while also developing new open pollinated varieties.  The <a href=”http://blog.seedalliance.org/2011/12/18/the-promising-potential-of-open-pollinated-corn/”>Organic Seed Alliance</a> helps gardeners and farmers to continue to have the freedom and security that comes with saving your own seed. </p>
