Seeds are magic. Put a bag of compost with plum and damson stones in the bottom of the salad drawer in the fridge several weeks ago to stratify.. completely forgot about them. All the stones are now sprouting happily. These were just stones saved from fruit we got at the #CommunityFridge so will pot them up, keep an eye and pass them on when they get a bit bigger. #permaculture #SeedSaving #allotment #gardening

@greenpeace Gideon Muya, Programs Officer, Biodiversity and Biosafety Association of Kenya, said:

“This judgment is a shield for our biodiversity. Indigenous seeds are the library of life – they hold the genetic diversity we need to withstand droughts, pests, and a changing climate. The court has recognised that you cannot patent nature’s heritage. We have reclaimed the right to choose what we plant and what we eat, free from the coercion of commercial seed monopolies.” #SeedSaving #SolarPunk
