Review for Native Seeds/SEARCH, Tucson, AZ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

How priceless is the service to the Planet of saving rare and endangered crop seeds--the genetic material which can help to feed us in the future! Native Seeds/SEARCH has quietly and effectively saved locally SW adapted seed for the last 30 years. Through SeedSchool they are teaching how everyone can take part in saving our food-growing potential.

Review for Sky Island Alliance, Tucson, AZ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Sky Island Alliance is one of those run-silent-run-deep organizations which has the delicate and inclusive skill of building bridges between and among seemingly disparate groups. They bring opposing and opinionated people together to see each others' points of view and to find common ground. Their staff understands issues from the ground up--from deep ecological studies of sky island flora and fauna, up through the action arena inspiring volunteer boots on the ground to care for threatened natural places, and at the top, advocating as a team player on Capitol Hill to bring about changes in wildland management policy.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

find more support for their policy and advocacy work
