GMO free Italian Vegetable Seeds

In the early seventies Torontonian Angelo Berton visited Italy on several occasions and each time returned to Canada with some seed packages to plant in his garden. He brought back vegetable and herb seeds that he could not find in Canada and that reminded him of home.

By 1977 he came to the conclusion that he was probably not the only one longing for some of the vegetables from his homeland. He began importing the varieties that, through his own experience, produced excellent results here in Canada. Those varieties consisted of chicories, lettuces, herbs, tomatoes, eggplants and peppers and he decided to sell them under the name Berton Seeds.

All the Italian seeds are grown as nature intended. Hybrids are created by age-old grafting techniques. NONE are genetically modified, which is different to grafting; GMO modification means changing the gene structure of the cells artificially.

Berton, began distributing his seed packages to small grocery stores in the Italian areas of Toronto. Over time, as demand increased, he expanded to the rest of Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia and Alberta. We’re proud to carry such a great product.
