Australia's finest range of heirloom seeds since 1986
  • Which Are More Nutritious

    19 Jul 2004

    Traditional or Modern varieties of fruits and vegetables?
    Amy Glastonbury,
    The Seed Savers Network, 19th July 2004.
     

    It is our belief at Seed Savers that older varieties of fruits and vegetables are more nutritious than modern varieties. Over the last century plant breeders have focused their efforts on breeding plants that have high yields, are easily transportable, have a long storage life and are pest and disease resistant. Until the last few years, little or no attention has been directed towards breeding plants that are tasty and more nutritious. This has resulted in a selection of fruit and vegetables in our supermarkets that are bland, uniform and of little nutritional value.

  • Recent Developments

    19 Apr 2005

    Eden Seeds continues to make available by mail order the widest range of old traditional open pollinated seed.
    This reflects not only our interest in making available a wide range of traditional varieties but the growing awareness of many gardeners and cottage industry growers of the need to contribute something toward the preservation of our food heritage and the desire to learn the skills needed for seed production and storage.

  • Composting

    22 Apr 2005

    Whilst reading “Articles by Ehrenfried Pfeiffer” volume 2
    I noted that by “composting proper”
    (a) nitrogen content can be increased
    (b) minerals are made available
    (c) acidification is avoided
    (d) a stable product is obtained
    B-D compost out-performs NPK fertilizers in vitamin A & C tests and is above average protein.
     

    In the field treatment with compost and 500
    1. Soil Structure is changed
    2. Acidity of many soils is reduced

  • Beating the GMO Future

    23 Apr 2005

    By Alf Finch
    Originator of Eden Seeds and Select Organic
     

    Learning the simple art of seed saving is one way to beat GMO’s.
     

    Another way to pressure producers to avoid using GMO’s is not to buy their produce. Home gardeners can ensure they use old traditional varieties by saving seed for themselves and others. Recent GMO’S are made from two unrelated species. The modern hybrid is a man made forced cross between two inbred varieties of the same species and as such is genetically modified. The result is a plant which will not grow true to type from seed and is usually bred for shelf life and appearance. What was our food heritage becomes patented by large companies, through this process of hybridization.
     

    In taste and nutrition hybrids are usually far inferior...

  • Biodynamic Field Day

    20 May 2010

    2010 Field Day, Bio-Dynamic Agricultural Association of Australia
    by Alex Podolinsky. Monday 26/04/2010

    Condensed from tape. AGM 2010 Monday, farm field day opened to conventional farmers of Victoria’s mid western district on a well developed large Bio-Dynamic farm (grazing, sheep, modern flour mill). Estimated 200 farmers came, some 50 experienced Bio-Dynamic farmers present to answer question etc. after introductory lecture and after my departure. Not just a lecture by an individual, but a confrontation of the conventional farming system, which is based on Justin Von Liebig’s discovery that plants can take in only water soluble elements, which lead to the conventional system being increasingly hydroponic; almost totally disregarding soil and Nature’s organization.

  • Airport Surprise

    08 May 2011

    Recently while travelling to Victoria some interesting situations at the Airport showed how far changes have come for consumers and to me how much more we can still do.
    Eden Seeds was started 26 years ago to give home gardeners the choice of being able to obtain the old traditional open pollinated varieties of vegetable seed in addition to growing organically.
    My old property in Gympie was the first NASAA certified property in Queensland. The present property is registered Demeter. In the 1980’s we dreamt of a local store selling organic produce. Now there are so many retail outlets and farmers markets that the supermarkets are now taking interest as well.

    Hello Alf:
    We are working hard on retaining South Australia's and Tassie's GM-free status till 2019, when it is due to expire on September 1, in the normal course of events.

  • The Answer is in the Seed

    25 Nov 2013

    A small cartel of agrochemical and seed companies now owns much of the world's seed supply. They send seed and food where they are most profitable, not where they are most needed. So the work of independent heirloom and open-pollinated seed producers and seed savers is critical to food sovereignty and security for our children and grandchildren.

    Once a Tomato is ripe then so are the seeds mature.
    It is best when saving seed to let the tomatoes over ripen on the bush - but start the process as soon as any damage appears.

    Tomato seeds have a jelly around the seeds which makes them difficult to handle and acts as an inhibitor to germination until it is rotted away.
