Organization History
Each member of this organization have trod upon a different path, and arrived here for a different reason. For some, it was the somber realization of imbalance. For others, an ethical devotion endowed at youth. For others still, it has been the ravishing flicker of change. Regardless of the journey, the precipice remains the same: the harrowing gaze into a catastrophic future where climate change, soil degradation, desertification, mass extinction, water scarcity and malnutrition reign supreme. The global Moment of Exigence is now.
These individual paths drew nearer and The Loving Seed was officially founded in June, 2024.
As an organization, our role is to educate and empower others to feel the same moral obligation for positive change. We are a grassroots organization, working on the small-scale to put our hands in the soil and inspire. We are midwesterners, primarily from Illinois, who call this place home and yearn to see it return to really being The Prairie State. Our history is the history of Illinois, the midwest, the United States, of humanity. Now that 40% of US farmland is owned by individuals 65 years and older, a new generation of land stewards must emerge. The Loving Seed has set out to ensure that the new generation takes regenerative measures.
