California: Organic Seed Alliance hosts first-ever California Organic Seed Summit
USA
February 19, 2016
 There is a clear need to increase the availability and diversity of organic seed for California's organic growers.
As seed companies expand their offerings to fill this gap, they face a number of challenges inherent to being in the business of seed.
Many of these challenges can be solved through communication and collaboration between seed producers and distributors.
In February 2015, OSA hosted the first organic seed summit in the state with a number of organic seed stakeholders.
The group created long-term strategies and actions for building an organic seed system in the state, which are captured in the summit proceedings.
As a result of the summit, more than 70 commercial seed producers are participating in OSA's online network to put into action the needs identified by the group.
A 2016 summit is planned for March.
