Mission Statement for SLOLA
“Our mission is to facilitate the growth of open-pollinated seeds among all residents of the Greater Los Angeles Area. We are building a seed collection and repository, educating members about the practice of seed-saving, and creating a local community of seed-saving gardeners. We seek to preserve genetic diversity, increase food security and food justice in our region, safeguard alternatives to GMO’s, and empower all members through a deeper connection with nature and the experience of self-reliance. We strive for excellence in all that we do, knowing the preservation of seed is a sacred trust.”
