NEWS RELEASE
Back To The Roots Wants To Make Regenerative Organic Seeds Mainstream
by Esha Chhabra
Gaia Herbs®’ regenerative farming practices proved their strength during Hurricane Helene, as healthy soils absorbed flooding and prevented significant erosion.
That same commitment now comes to life through a partnership with Back to the Roots®, launching America’s first Regenerative Organic Certified® (ROC™) seeds at national retailers, bringing trusted, soil-first practices into everyday gardening.
"As retail partners invest in educating consumers on regenerative agriculture, from food to supplements and now into the garden aisle, it creates a natural partnership we can all advocate behind.” - Jayme Torres, Head of Commercial, Gaia Herbs®
As awareness grows, the Regenerative Organic Certified® seal represents more than a label,it offers credibility and a tangible way for consumers to support a more regenerative future, one seed at a time.
