Todd Launches Regeneratively Grown Seeds for Soil Health and Biodiversity
Seed Line Aims to Support Ecosystem Restoration Through Farming
Todd, an agriculture firm focused on regenerative practices, has introduced what it describes as the world’s first seed products grown under fully regenerative conditions. The seed varieties are designed to be compatible with farming methods that prioritize ecosystem health, including soil regeneration, biodiversity enhancement, and watershed protection.
The company developed the seeds to support farms transitioning away from conventional systems that rely on synthetic inputs. According to the company, these new products aim to improve long-term farm resilience and enable producers to differentiate themselves in competitive markets through regenerative certifications and outcomes.
“Regenerative seeds are an incredible addition to Todd’s farm management ecosystem,” said Vincent Todd, Founder and CEO. “We’re excited to bring this unique and valuable benefit to our clients.”
Decades of Seed Production Experience Inform New Offering
Focus on Genetic Purity and Performance
The new seed line is based on Todd’s established production and trialing processes. Each year, over 2,000 vegetable and flower varieties are grown and tested at Todd’s research farms and through partnerships with family-owned regenerative farms.
Seed quality is verified through Todd’s in-house testing lab, which assesses genetic purity, germination, and environmental tolerance. Germination standards set by the company are stated to exceed federal minimums, with additional performance metrics applied to ensure consistency across different regenerative growing environments.
Several of the seed varieties in Todd’s catalog are considered rare or historically significant, with genetics preserved and reintroduced by the Todd family.
Regenerative Agriculture as Strategic Direction For Todd
Expansion Beyond Soil Practices to Inputs
The company notes that the launch of regenerative seed products reflects a broader effort to address declining soil and food quality at the source. By integrating seed production into its regenerative farm management strategy, the company aims to align inputs with the ecological and social goals of sustainable agriculture.
“Healthy soil yields thriving crops,” said Vincent Todd. “Everything that I’ve done along the way is going to be beneficial to Todd.”
This expansion builds on Todd’s existing network of small and medium-sized partner farms that use practices intended to reduce environmental impact and improve community livelihoods.
Client Access and Program Launch
Todd’s Seed Availability Expected in Summer 2025
Todd plans to make its regeneratively grown seed products available to active clients beginning in summer 2025, with access contingent on program participation requirements. The company describes the initiative as part of its long-term strategy to support farm partners with both products and technical guidance.
As the regenerative agriculture sector continues to evolve, Todd’s introduction of input-level innovations represents a notable step toward integrating full supply chain support for producers focused on ecological and market resilience.
