What is the most important beginning for healthy food?  Safe seeds; non-GMO, Heirloom and from a reputable supplier are essential for the health of your body.  Food starts from seeds and if you do not have a good start, it just goes down hill from there.  Plants are the basis of a healthy diet and they are the most nutrient dense item we can consume.  If you are growing it, nurturing it and harvesting it, you know the safety of your food supply. Heirloom gardening is a lifestyle that has never left, it is saving the plant world.

My guest today is Art Davidson, horticulturist and arborist from Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company, which carries one of the largest selections of seeds from the 19th century, including many Asian and European varieties.  All of their seeds are non-hybrid, non-GMO, non-treated and non-patented.  Baker Creek Co-Founders Jere and Emilee Gettle have authored a book The Heirloom Life Gardener which is the definitive guide to growing healthy and safe food.
