Our Family Farms envisions a thriving food and agricultural system
with seed diversity and farmable land for generations to come.
We educate, advocate and inspire farmers, policy makers
and the community at large to support regenerative agricultural practices.

Come enjoy the local harvest, celebrate living in a GE free Seed Sanctuary, and help us recognize volunteers and legislators that are supporting our work to create a thriving food and agricultural system with seed diversity and farmable land for generations to come.
"Eating is an agricultural act." ~ Wendell Berry
The jurisdictions shown on this map have created GE-Free Seed Sanctuaries. Will the town, city, county, or state where you live be next?
*Josephine County, Oregon passed a ballot measure to ban the cultivation of genetically engineered crops (Measure 17-58) on May 20, 2014. It was approved by 58% of the voters. The county was subsequently sued by a couple of plaintiffs who claimed that the measure was preempted and invalidated by state law - SB 863. That court decision is currently pending appeal. See Oregonions for Safe Farms and Families for the latest updates. Our Family Farms supports the right of all farmers to protect themselves against the threat of genetically engineered crops.
