Interview: Teresa Podell, owner, Prairie Road Organic Seed

Podell explains why history and heritage have value in seeds.

Prairie Road Organic Farm has been certified organic since 1977. A primary focus of their farm is to feed themselves and to eat well, according to Podell.

“We have bred and selected vegetable varieties that perform well agronomically in our own organic gardens, are well adapted to our northern growing region, AND bring joy to our table,” Podell said. “Yes, our varieties need to perform, but as Dan’s brother, David, so aptly states, “They also need to be beautiful and delicious.’”

All of their seed is grown on a farm near Fullerton, ND, which has been certified organic since 1977.
