Best Place From Which to Export the Desert

Native Seeds/SEARCH

In a world of genetically modified everything, this internationally known organization has made it its mission to preserve and promote the use of seeds and crops native to the Southwest and the Sonoran Desert. At its relatively new storefront on Campbell Avenue, you'll find a cornucopia of our desert's raw materials—all appropriately modified for human consumption (and holiday mailings!). Everything—from mesquite and prickly pear soaps, to chili-chocolate brownie mixes, to the Desert Healing Salve (made from desert willow wildflowers, chaparral and jojoba oil)—will scream your love for the Arizona desert.
