Dear Friend,
Thank you very much for your generous support to our initiative promoting the use of heirloom seeds in farming especially by small, marginal farming families who do not have access to hybrid seeds. Also hybrid seeds aside from being expensive could not be used over again because it will not produce true to type, so unlike traditional varieties that have withstand the test of time for generations. This reporting period we promoted the use and processing of heirloom seeds to young trainees who will be farming their land areas. Our seeds being promoted comprise of vegetables, root crops and legumes. We were able to train a total of 30 farmers and we hope to increase the number in the next few months. We plan also to establish a small seed production farm which aside from producing the seeds will also be training ground for those interested to use this type of seeds. Hoping for your continuing support. Thank you very much.
Very truly yours,
Cesario Sayre
