Seed Ark Recipients

It all starts with the seed. Biodiversity preservation is one of the most important things we can do to support the health of living ecosystems on the planet. Enter the world of the Mother of Time, the seeds.

Seeds represent the cyclical nature of time. We can reflect on how all living things are born and die. Therefore seeds are like the egg, the beginning of life.

These wonderful projects are seeking to build a seed ark for their region. Share in the gift of life, the seeds, for the future generations and a healthy planet.
