Our channel features an insight into the world of seed conservation in the Southwest. We are a small, non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and preserving arid adapted crop seeds. We believe we all have a shared responsibility in creating a future with productive gardens and farms, strong communities, and reliable access to healthy food by all residents of the Southwest and beyond.

The mission of Native Seeds/SEARCH (Southwestern Endangered Aridland Resources Clearing House) is to conserve, distribute, and document the adapted and diverse varieties of agricultural seeds, their wild relatives, and the roles these seeds play in the cultures of the US Southwest and Northwest Mexico.
