    Hi, Wayne! Do you have any Magic Manna in the works? Expect to have any seeds to offer this year or next?

    • I don't have any Magic Manna available now. I grew some for Snake River Seed Cooperative.

    Thanks Wayne, I'd love to buy it, but my certifier requires I do the following documentation:

    submit the Non-treated attestation
    submit the Non-GMO attestation for high-risk crops

    How can I reach you with the documents? my farm website is birdandbee.ca

  • Answer this question

    if I bought this could I get some affidavits signed to allow me to grow it in a certified organic system? Basically I just need an attestation that says the seed is non-gmo and non-treated to use it.

    • Yes, it is untreated and has no GMO contamination as far as I know. It was certified organic when I grew it, but I am not allowed to sell it as organic now because I no longer have a certified organic operation.
