The campaign is grounded by a fantastic website that serves as a treasure trove of information divided into sections that delve into the nuances of Certified seed, its value, quality, identity assurance, traceability and trustworthiness.

What’s really special about the content is the heartfelt, compelling videos from our seed growers and stakeholders. Their perspectives, genuine experiences, and passion form the essence of the campaign amplifying the message to farmers to choose Certified seed.

The unveiling in St. John’s was a soft launch. The entire campaign promotion starts this fall when producers transition from the fields and start to prepare for the next crop season.

Time to Amplify

CSGA is thrilled to see the enthusiasm surrounding this initiative. Indeed, our unified efforts will steer this campaign toward success.

The power of digital media can ‘t be underestimated. Our campaign promotion will include paid targeted social media ads. If you are interested in coming on board, please reach out.

Help us get the word out there! We encourage you to use the hashtag #ChooseCertifiedSeed, share the campaign videos and website, and talk to your customers.

Let’s tell farmers, processors, and end users why they should #ChooseCertifiedSeed for the highest quality, identity-assured, third-party verified seed to set them up for success!

Together, let’s drive the message of certified seed far and wide.

Talking Points
