DID YOU KNOW THAT SAVING AND SHARING SEEDS IS TERRORISM??! Dept of Ag Shuts Down Cell of Potential “Agri-Terrorists”: Seed Libraries Outlawed in Pennsylvania Daisy Luther Activist Post It looks like Michigan is not the only state with a Department of Agriculture that is adamant about the best interests of their citizens. Residents in Pennsylvania can now breathe a little bit easier since an illegal enterprise has been shut down. The Joseph T. Simpson Public Library in Mechanicsburg was participating in an activity that put the entire ecosystem of the state at risk. In an astonishing act of hubris, they were running a seed library, right there amongst the books, in the very facility where small children go to have stories read to them. I’m not making this up. A SEED LIBRARY. If you aren’t sure what this is, it allows patrons to go in and get heirloom seeds, for free. The borrower plants the seeds, then at harvest time, saves seeds and returns them to the library. The horror. Apparently this violates the “Seed Act of 2004.” activistpost/2014/08/dept-of-agri-shuts-down-cell-of.html#!bvtrWe
