I am forwarding this from the Bioregional listserve.
This letter is hauntingly germane to recent discourse on this list.
Like, "politics has nothing to do with permaculture institutions and

Anyway, anyone interested in the maintenance of Seed Saver's Exchange
should closely be paying attention to this.
Warm Regards,

Many of you may be familiar with the work, buy garden seeds from or even be members of Seed Saver's Exchange in Decorah Iowa. You may have heard Kent Whealy give one of his inspiring talks.

C'est impossible!
There's an infestation of power grabs all over the USA.
If they can do it they will do it or try. They are like reptiles without heads
running on autonomous nerve energy.
