Where to find
ORGANIC SEEDS • SEMILLAS
in Costa Rica

It's VERY IMPORTANT to know that Costa Rica has one of THE HIGHEST usages of Pesticides in the world (CR has 51.2kg with #2 being Columbia at just 16.7kg - per NationMaster.com/graph/agr_pes_use-agriculture-pesticide-use - no thanks to the U.S. and "conditions" to "gifts"), and GMO's HAVE ALREADY seeped into the country (FYI - countries•cities can SAY they're outlawing GMO's BUT - isn't the land - ALL OVER the world - ALREADY infested WITH these GMO seeds??  Even cross-breaded with our seeds?).
So if you're of the conscious type - it's CRUCIAL that you
KNOW WHERE YOUR SEEDS ARE COMING FROM!!


With that said - if you're looking for
