HAGA Notes That Seed Saving is Essential for the Whole Community
Incline Village, NV, November 22, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Chuck Harmon, Founder and CEO of Home and Garden America, has noted in a recent interview just how essential it is to save heirloom survival seeds for the whole community.
"Saving seeds, especially heirloom varieties, is not just for vegetable gardeners anymore. Everyone and everything benefits from this simple activity—most especially the environment," Harmon stated.
"Vegetable gardeners save heirloom seeds so they can reduce gardening costs and reuse their preserved seeds for the next growing seasons. But while seed saving is more popular among vegetable gardeners, it is undeniably gaining a lot of traction among survivalists and wildlife rehabilitators," he continued.
"Survival enthusiasts save heirloom survival seeds so they can equip themselves for future emergencies. Many preppers use the seeds to grow a survival garden full of edible heirloom vegetables. This will create a continuous food supply and ensure that their families will have something to eat when disaster strikes. Once the vegetables are harvested, survivalists take the seeds from the best-looking crops and then start the seed-saving process. This way, they can have their own supply and not have to buy any more heirloom survival seeds. In this case, seed saving actually saves them a lot of time and money," Harmon went on.
"Wildlife rehabilitation experts, on the other hand, preserve seeds in order to restore habitats that are severely damaged by calamities. Wildfires, in particular, are a great concern for rehabilitators. The high occurrence of wildfires in recent years is very alarming and destructive to the ecosystem. Various restoration efforts are taking place but unfortunately, the seed supply is not always enough to cover everything. To speed up the wildlife rehabilitation efforts, many volunteers have started gathering and saving seeds with the help of various seed collecting programs," he said.
"We at Home and Garden America promote the wonderful tradition of heirloom seed saving and urge everyone to try it. Whether you're a vegetable gardener, survivalist, wildlife rehabilitator, or simply someone who cares about the environment, seed saving is definitely something you can do for the good of the community," he concluded.
