Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part III

“- distributed over 100 household seed library boxes to partner farmers. Equipping farmer leaders to store, share, and steward a wide diversity of seeds at home. Each of these boxes survived the devastating earthquakes and typhoons that hammered the philippines in 2025. - expanded and deepened our network of seed saving communities (ssc's) across the philippines including growing to communities across mindanao. We now have 16 active ssc's across all major regions of the philippines. - held 12 seed schools training 543 people in seed school 1-3. - our two seed sanctuaries are growing out 297 varieties of local seeds. - built a mud house longer term seed storage facility at the tublay seed sanctuary, thanks to collaborations with a local permaculture design consultant and community members who built the structure. - we launched our seed inventory and tracking system (sits) which is our model to monitor and track what seeds are being produced and their climate adaptation. - launched a yearlong project with the icrops department at the university of the philippines los banos, producing the first of its kind local seed saving catalogue sharing the information and cultural relevance of 100 different local seed varieties. - we held a meaningful and dynamic 3-day all staff in person retreat in april in the philippines. It was the first time our current full team was together in person and gave us space to deepen our team trust and engage in critical reflection and planning for our future plans.”
