Save Our Seeds, a campaign supported by many different organisations in Europe, is committed to the establishment of strict purity standards for seeds and the accurate labelling of contamination with genetically modified organisms (more about the initiative here). The initiative focuses on legislation within the European Union and its member states, especially on the attempts of the European Commission to raise labelling thresholds for "GM-free" seed by proposing a new Seed Directive.

Some suggestions, on how to get involved can be found under do more.

Under downloads you will find useful information materials that you can distribute and use to raise awareness (translations and your own contributions are most welcome).

All official EU documents, the positions of various organisations and institutions, scientific and legal background reading can be found under documents.

Here you will find a list of the relevant EU institutions and the addresses of the responsible Commissioners as well as tips on how to find the national institutions involved with the issue and decision regarding seed purity.

If you want to send us feedback, news or information about events, please  write an email to info (at) saveourseeds.org.
