Ecological Seeds Response to Typhoon Affected Farmers in The Philippines

A group of ecological farming practitioners and advocates have pooled their expertise and resources to help other farmers in typhoon-stricken Dolores, Eastern Samar. Farmers from Cebu, Bohol and Negros, gather ecologically farmed rice seeds, root crops, vegetable seeds and organic fertilizers which were loaded on two boats to help Dolores farming communities who are trying to get back on their feet following the onslaught of Typhoon Ruby (international name Hagupit) that hit the country on the 6th of December.
