"You Can Bank on Seeds to Not only Survive This Day, but to Thrive!"-- The Petaluma Seed bank is more important than The Doomsday Seed Vault n Syalvard to protect Our Sacred Seeds. I am looking to you, not to Syalvard, to protect Our Sacred Seeds. I am asking you to grow out the seeds and in doing so, regain your beat with nature. To Grow a Heirloom Seeds is to take your Own Sacred Seed off the Shelf. Do you understand?--Leslie Goldman,

Beet Keepers, Return!
'Beet Keepers, Return' is a play on words for an international movement that is needed now to on the journey to win back our sacred seeds.
'Beet' is a play on words for 'beat' and a reference to the beat of nature that has been by most of us and can be regained as we began to get our confidence back that we can grow some of our own food.
Begin with growing a beet in a pot. Move on to some of these recommended plant friends including growing KAMUT ® Khorasan Ancient Wheat into grass and Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds.

TOM NEWMARK ON SACRED SEEDS
AND THE LIMITS OF FROZEN SEED BANKS
Tom Newmark, a Sacred Seed helping to Preserve Our Sacred Seeds.
Seeds in a bank may be frozen, but the environment is not. Dramatic climate change will severely stress a plant's adaptive capabilities, and a frozen seed bank won't tell us if plants can handle that challenge.
Seed banks can protect only a limited number of species; many tropical seeds, for example, cannot be preserved by freezing. And we don't know how long frozen seeds can remain viable. To have a chance of protecting biodiversity, we will need living sanctuaries of useful plants in thousands of ecosystems. That might give us the breadth and flexibility necessary to begin the great task of protecting life on the planet. Finally, while the seeds lie frozen, healing traditions will still be disappearing.--Tom Newmark,
Founder of Sacred Seeds

COMMIT TO GROW SACRED SEEDS NOW
Role Playing Scenario--Jeremy Siefert, co-creator of the very important forthcoming GMO Untitled Film, gives the knockout blow in this image where we were footling around at the Natural Product Expo West last March. I see no less that one million new gardeners helping to ensure that our Sacred Seeds are protected. Please do not look to the Doomsday Vault in Iceland for protection against possible catastrophic conditions that might need us to have a back up plan to Win Back Our Sacred Seeds, should they be lost.
This is a wake up Call. We have already lost our Sacred Seeds! We need to win them back now.
Most every person who reproduces today by nature knows how to make seeds grow. Why stop there???? Get some Heirloom Seeds now from Baker Creek Rare Seeds Company, the inspirations behind the Petaluma Seed Bank. Start growing out these rare seeds and bring them to the next generation. Start local heirloom seed banks in your neighborhood.
Do not look to others to grow ALL of your food. Learn to reproduce seeds now. This is part of learning to live on earth.
The very act of growing a seed makes you a Beet Keeper. Beet Keepers, Return! Please do not expect wise decisions about our political future to come from Congress. Do not expect any kind of wise decision to come from anyone who has lost their beat with nature.

ABOUT THE THE DOOMSDAY VAULT.
IT IS CALLED THE SVALBARD GLOBAL SEED VAULT
Farmers Deposit Seeds in Arctic Doomsday Vault Owned by Bill Gates, UK, Australia
02/17/20110 Comments
Farmers from Australia are the latest donors to a polar bear-patrolled Arctic doomsday vault that stores seeds as insurance against an international food emergency.
The Svalbard Global Seed Vault, a converted mine, is located about 800 miles from the North Pole in Arctic Norway.
An Australian delegation of farmers and scientists next week will deposit 301 samples of peas and 42 rare chickpeas in the vault, intending to protect the plant species from extinction by climatic or man-made events.

Move on to Svalbard: Why are Bill Gates and "Monsanto" Invested in Saving The World's
Diverse Seeds?
Now is it simply philosophical sloppiness? What leads the Gates and Rockefeller foundations to at one and the same time to back proliferation of patented and soon-to-be Terminator patented seeds across Africa, a process which, as it has in every other place on earth, destroys the plant seed varieties as monoculture industrialized agribusiness is introduced? At the same time they invest tens of millions of dollars to preserve every seed variety known in a bomb-proof doomsday vault near the remote Arctic Circle ‘so that crop diversity can be conserved for the future’ to restate their official release?
It is no accident that the Rockefeller and Gates foundations are teaming up to push a GMO-style Green Revolution in Africa at the same time they are quietly financing the ‘doomsday seed vault’ on Svalbard. The GMO agribusiness giants are up to their ears in the Svalbard project.
Indeed, the entire Svalbard enterprise and the people involved call up the worst catastrophe images of the Michael Crichton bestseller, Andromeda Strain, a sci-fi thriller where a deadly disease of extraterrestrial origin causes rapid, fatal clotting of the blood threatening the entire human species. In Svalbard, the future world’s most secure seed repository will be guarded by the policemen of the GMO Green Revolution--the Rockefeller and Gates Foundations, Syngenta, DuPont and CGIAR.
The Svalbard project will be run by an organization called the Global Crop Diversity Trust (GCDT). Who are they to hold such an awesome trust over the planet’s entire seed varieties? The GCDT was founded by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and Bioversity International (formerly the International Plant Genetic Research Institute), an offshoot of the CGIAR.
The Global Crop Diversity Trust is based in Rome. Its Board is chaired by Margaret Catley-Carlson a Canadian also on the advisory board of Group Suez Lyonnaise des Eaux, one of the world’s largest private water companies. Catley-Carlson was also president until 1998 of the New York-based Population Council, John D. Rockefeller’s population reduction organization, set up in 1952 to advance the Rockefeller family’s eugenics program under the cover of promoting “family planning,” birth control devices, sterilization and “population control” in developing countries.
