Hello and welcome to the website for Sharon Rempel. Sharon's researchered, written about, practiced and taught heritage seed conservation and permaculture design and garden management since the mid 1980s.

Baker's Journal article about Sharon and Red Fife wheat 2010.

Sharon is a global pioneer in the area of the Noetic Science of Agriculture. That's a new discipline of bringing intentional conscious decision making and spirituality in all life into the intentional cultivation of crops for food. (if you try and find this term on google it doesn't exist. Nor does 'credify' which is adding credibility to information. Sharon's created these terms, linking noetic science to her discipline of agriculture and 'credify').

Sharon designed a 20 year training program for herself to understand and design a method for spiritual plant breeding. This is a part of noetic agriculture and food production.

Sharon is a bridge to help people connect to their inner wisdom and Nature. Noetic science reminds us that all Life is connected. Listen to Dr. Bruce Lipton's tape The Wisdom of Your Cells to understand how cells tune into the environment and change.

Noetic agriculture is rooted in grassroots wisdom and knowledge and this connection is in each of us, as well as in heritage varieties of seed and in organically or biodynamically managed land. (People, Plant and Place)

Sharon facilities groups and communities to create signs, symbols and metaphors that will enrich human language and communication with the Divine energies of regeneration.

She designs opportunities of ‘seeing’ and ‘feeling’ a connection between People, Plant and Place.

All our food starts with the energies within a seed...regeneration and Life.

"The hand that holds the seed controls the food supply. May seed always be in the hands of gardeners and farmers who will save and share this wealth that belongs to all, free of trademarks and patents.”

Sharon Rempel, B.Sc. Agriculture; MA Conservation Studies (York England)

- Founder of "Seedy Saturday". The first event was in Vancouver 1990, at the VanDusen Botanical Gardens. Sharon kept the name 'Seedy Saturday"in the public domain. Communities across Canada and the UK use the name for events where seeds are sold and exchanged.

-Founder of the 'Red Fife Wheat Revival'. In 1986 Sharon was assistant manager at The Grist Mill at Keremeos, an 1880s historic site in B.C. She wanted to show the old varieties of wheat and planted a "Living Museum of Wheat" with Ladoga, Preston, Bishop, Stanley, Hard Red Calcutta, Marquis, Thatcher and Red Fife. When visitors raved about the Red Fife she decided to create a story and demand for the old wheat. She began to bulk up the old wheats.

Red Fife is grown throughout the world now, and has inspired the growing and sale of other historic and landrace varieties and species (e.g. einkorn, emmer, spelt) of wheat. Slow Food Canada put Red Fife on the Ark.

And 'terroir' happens in every crop not just grapes. The interaction of the genetics and the environment affects the taste, gluten and other proteins in the wheat, year to year, same seed, same field. So nutritional analysis for a 'wheat', even a variety and farmer identifed variety, will change year to year. That's Terroir.

Sharon created and produced Canada's First Bread and Wheat Festival in Victoria BC October 27, 2007. It celebrated the return of Red Fife wheat in Canada and the creation of a Red Fife Wheat song by Phil Vernon.

Sharon also helped bring the zucca melon back to Canada.

If you check out the free booklet DIG - Diversity in Gardens, under books you can see pictures of the zucca.

Sharon's got three free booklets to download just go to the Books page. Heritage Gardens...Inspirations from our Past; DIG and On Farm Research Guide.

This looks like a good game about Seeds.
