I don't object to genetically modified plants in principle. But I believe very firmly in preserving old-fashioned non-hybridized heirloom varieties of food plants an animals. I always make sure to plant mostly heirloom varieties in my garden.
Preserving genes of food sources is vital to the future of the world. A lack of genetic diversity led to the Irish potato famine and other crop failures. Once a gene is gone, it's gone for good.
If you want to donate money to a seed bank that isn't run by Monsatan, there's the Kew project:

Support companies that promote heirloom varieties.
Do web searches for "heirloom seeds" and "heirloom plants" when you plan your garden.
A few that come to mind out of the many deserving vendors are:

It's "arctic." Sorry.

I've been a member of Seed Savers Exchange for seven years. While the organization does maintain a select number of cultivars, the individual members preserve the bulk of what is listed in their annual listing. That's exactly the way that it should be: individuals acting in their own best interest resulting in a distributed and redundant system.Originally Posted by Corydoras
I maintain a couple dozen heirloom apple cultivars plus some other fruit trees. I have one pear that can be traced back to the Roman Empire.

"They sell us the president the same way they sell us our clothes and our cars. They sell us every thing from youth to religion the same time they sell us our wars. I want to know who the men in the shadows are. I want to hear somebody asking them why. They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are but theyre never the ones to fight or to die." - Jackson Browne Lives In The Balance
