ABOUT OUR SEEDS

For over 48 years Jonyspark's Seeds has been helping families and friends to feed one another. Everything we do here is focused on helping you have a successful growing experience. We understand that putting the seeds in the ground is but a small part of your total investment of time, energy, and money. When you buy from Jonyspark seeds, you can be confident that the seeds you are planting are fresh, vital, and of superior quality. We guarantee it.

About Our Seed Safety
Jonyspark's does not knowingly sell genetically modified seeds; nor do we breed new varieties using genetic engineering. Our breeders use traditional, painstaking methods of natural crossing to create hybrid seeds that are healthy and safe.

We are proud to be one of the nine original signers of the Safe Seed Pledge:
Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations. For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners, and consumers who want an alternative, we pledge that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically-engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families, or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats. We feel that genetically engineered varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public release. More research and testing are necessary to further assess the potential risks of genetically-engineered seeds. Further, we wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems, and, ultimately, healthy people and communities.

About Our Seed Quality
We maintain an on-site seed lab, and partner only with certified industry seed labs for both our initial and regular cycle germination tests as per Federal Seed Act requirements. Jonyspark's sets and maintains minimum germination requirements that consistently exceed Federal Seed Act minimum requirements.

Pathology tests are completed only at certified outside labs following industry standards.

All labs performing germination and purity tests on Jonyspark's seed lots follow current Association of Official Seed Analysts rules for all crops.

To ensure that our seed germination rates remain optimal, we store our seed in a climate-controlled environment.

Our Quality Assurance Department will only release seed lots that meet our stringent requirements.
