[Homestead] Seed Co's Owned by Monsanto

What I "heard"is that Monsanto owns American Seeds and that the "list below folks" have bought American Seeds.  Do not have a clue if any of that is true.

  Unreal, and untrue. It sounds to me more like a list of seed companies NOT 
  owned by Monsanto. Many of the companies listed are owned by Jung's. Some 
  are independent or family-owned. Johnny's is employee-owned; I've bought 
  from and gotten Johnny's newsletter for years; they will be one of the LAST 
  companies to fall to Monsanto..
