To determine how plants are evolving in response to climate change and environmental degradation, a vault in Colorado has been established to keep 5 million seeds frozen; SurvivalSeeds4Patriots officials remind people they can have their own vaults containing non-GMO seeds
NASHVILLE, TN / ACCESSWIRE / March 24, 2016 / Most people have heard about the Svalbard Seed Vault on Spitsbergen Island in Norway – also known as the Doomsday Seed Vault – and its goal of protecting biological diversity. Not as many are familiar with a vault in Fort Collins, Colo., where 5 million seeds are being kept frozen for the purpose of studying how plants are evolving in response to climate change and environmental degradation, according to Nature magazine.
Officials at SurvivalSeeds4Patriots are big supporters of both seed vaults.
"The seed vault in Norway was established so that seeds from countries that are devastated by wars or extreme weather could be preserved, while the vault in Colorado features 60 different species of seeds from 250 different areas of the country," said Allen Baler, Partner at 4Patriots LLC.
"The vault in Colorado will enable scientists to eventually grow stored seeds side by side with those from plants that were left to evolve, in identical conditions. Any differences will then be attributable to evolution. Both vaults provide a very valuable service."
Baler's company helps self-reliant Americans develop seed vaults of their own containing non-GMO vegetable seeds to use for planting, growing, harvesting, replanting and storing for the future. The Liberty Seed Vault is an air-tight metal storage container including more than 5,400 heirloom seeds from 21 varieties of vegetables.
It includes broccoli, spinach, carrots, squash, corn, tomatoes, onions, beets and zucchini seeds, plus many others. Each order is accompanied by four complimentary guides and a 100 percent money-back guarantee.
SurvivalSeeds4Patriots officials recommend that people use only open-pollinated, non-hybrid seeds in their gardens – a common practice for larger seed vaults – which is easily achievable for the common gardener.
"After growing and enjoying these nutritious vegetables, gardeners can use the seeds from the harvest for next year's crops, so they never have to buy seeds again," Baler said.
SurvivalSeeds4Patriots is the premier source for heirloom, non-hybrid, non-GMO seeds people can use in their gardens to grow nutritious vegetables. Containing more than 5,400 heirloom seeds from 21 varieties of vegetables, the Liberty Seed Vault allows people to achieve independence and self-reliance, despite whatever food shortages and price increases might occur.
