Welcome
Happy to have you visit! The small volunteer group known as the Dan McMurray Community Seed Bank became a non-profit society in 2021. We grow and store a wide variety of vegetable seeds here in the beautiful Creston valley to enhance food security. Enjoy your stroll around our site ...
Our Vision
Seeds Contribute to Food Security.
A secure supply of food seeds is the basis for food security for the entire Creston valley and beyond. Seeds are small and easily stored. Seed banks can hold hundreds of varieties and thousands of seeds in long-term storage. They are easy to access. If a long-term crisis occurs, these nutrient-dense vegetable seeds can be distributed throughout the community. Then people can grow their own food.
The Seed Bank
The purpose of the Creston Community Seed Bank Society is to maintain a seed bank that holds a large quantity of genetically pure, open-pollinated, non-GMO, ecologically grown seeds that will contribute to local food security.
