Meet Tricia Sedgwick, Founder
In the beginning my intentions were no more than to create a healthy indulgence and share with those I love…It was through the encouragement of those I shared with that the idea to build a “happy cookie” business developed. Eventually I saw the cookies as a way to provide optimal nutrition for the world, to assist with funding for edible garden projects and as an avenue to create prosperity through giving. I recognized the power of a philantrophic business model while envisioning the cookies as a vehicle that would turn my vision into a reality.

The idea came long before the name which describes both the seeds of the grains used to produce our sprouted stone ground flour, as well as the seeds planted in the ground for edible garden projects.

The journey commenced in the summer of 2006 at the UBC Farm Market where we had a table of various sprouted baked goods. The same year we sold our first round of Christmas and Holiday baskets and we have continued to grow from there, of course with the support of many great partners.

Enjoy Seeds of Plenty products, I look forward to infusing my love into future creations and sharing them with you along the way.

With so much love,
Tricia

Giving. It’s at the heart of every culture, to give of oneself, whether it be time, money or resources. It is a need shared amongst humans to be a part of something greater, to help in a way that has the power to heal communities and better the human condition.

The intrinsic value of genuine giving or acts of kindness can not be measured and often ignites the desire to give more. 

The Buddhists call it DANA, the Jewish marked it as MITZVAH, Sikhism has termed it DASVANDH and in North America you will often hear the word PHILANTROPHY, each term is used to describe the act of giving on all different levels. 

GIVING is a common thread among humans, reminding us that among all our differences we are still connected at the core of our existence. We are more than our cultures or our religions; we are human beings sharing a common ground for a better planet.

Seeds of Plenty believes in creating good through giving back. It is our philosophy that prosperity is the result of empowered communities that have been invested in. And so this sprouted cookie company invests in The World in Garden urban agriculture project that provides tools for community to be self sustaining stewards of the planet. The growing, harvesting, sharing and selling of food is the perfect medium for which we can relate to each other and begin to build community at a local and global level. Across cultures and physical borders there is the tradition of food that sustains us …simply put it is, “The World in a Garden”. Learn more about our work in the community, here.

Divinely inspired. Consciously created.
