[quote=Anonymous]I agree -- there's really almost no chance that you're buying seeds or plants that are GMOs. Most commercially available GMO crops have been bred to be sold as a package with a pesticide or herbicide -- such as Roundup Ready crops. That said I would be concerned about a different issue with respect to buying from big box stores or large nurseries -- and that is whether your plants have been treated with neonicotinoids, a class of pesticide associated with pollinator decline. If you can buy plants that are guaranteed to have been raised organically great but don't buy "bee friendly" plants from big box stores or large nurseries unless you are 100% sure they have not been treated with neonics.[/quote]
