Following nature’s model of open dispersal and dissemination, we share these seeds with you and invite you to play in the garden of abundance. We learn from nature and she has taught us to live and think in terms of “abundance” instead of “scarcity”. Diversity - in all forms, from genetic to creative expression - is the heart of resilience. We enjoy experimenting with myriads of flavors, colors, and textures and the world opens to us in infinite possibilities. As a result, we are nourished in body, mind, and spirit.","brand":"RESTORATION SEEDS","offers":[{"title":"300 Seeds","offer_id":883761137,"sku":"10465","price":4.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0129\/8922\/products\/littleleprechuan3.jpg?v=1578086563","url":"https:\/\/www.restorationseeds.mom\/products\/little-leprachaun-lettuce","provider":"RESTORATION SEEDS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
