Why join Fedco?
We’ll let some of those who joined speak for themselves:
- “We love you and are really proud to be a certificate carrying FEDCO member. Thanks for existing.” –Peggy Kass, Kassenhoff Growers, Oakland, CA
- “An organization that expresses views on political, economic and sustainable agriculture issues with the insight and dedication of CR Lawn deserves my support.” –Rich Tomsu, Shade, OH
- “Every year since 2001 I found a way to smuggle my Fedco Seed order across the border. Man am I happy that you now deliver to Canada.”–New Fedco Co-op member, name withheld, Ontario
- “I applaud your stance on GMO and seed business ethics and am proud to count myself a Fedco member.” –Bette Low, Westport, MA
- “I’m a small one-person operation. I have been ordering seed from you for years, and it’s time to join.” –Karen Coombs, Hamilton, MT
- “I’m glad to be able to join as a consumer member, on behalf of my community, the New York City Catholic Worker. The CW movement has advocated decentralized cooperative economics since the 1930s.” –T. Christopher Cornell
- “We loved CR Lawn’s letter…he is absolutely right…we will send in our membership to show our support of a tremendous organization.” –Marita and Bob Wiser, Bridgton, ME
Our more than 1,400 consumer members and 120 worker members are the foundation of our strength and the fount of our support. Here’s your chance to join the Fedco cooperative and help us continue far into the future. We have a lot of work ahead helping build a sustainable seed system.
