Seed Savers Exchange

Heartland Acres Agribition Center Presents: Seed Savers Exchange; Buy your heritage seeds locally

For the sixth year, Heartland Acres Agribition Center is an outlet for “Seed Savers” of Decorah, Iowa.

Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers, heirloom seeds can now be purchased in the Gift Shoppe at Heartland Acres Agribition Center.

Seed Savers Exchange was founded in 1975 and has helped preserve our heritage. Seed Savers Exchange saves and shares the heirloom seeds of our garden heritage. Saving seeds is part of ancient traditions and as stewards of our resources is one way of nurturing our diverse gardening heritage.

Gardeners from every corner of the world have brought seeds with them when their families immigrated to America. Throughout the colonial period, traditional seeds brought by European settlers enriched the legacy of food crops grown by Native Americans.

You can find Seed Savers in the Gift Shoppe at Heartland Acres Agribition Center. For more information visit www.heartlandacresusa.com or call 319 332-0123.
