Hello. Are these chia seeds non-GMO? Are they grown without pestcides?

I really don't know. I have used one full bag and plan to order again. Prior to this i was taking lifemax at $50 a pound. I really can't tell any difference and feel good eating it.

I don't believe any chia seeds are GMO. Don't know about chemicals. Check out http://www.azchia.com/ for lots of good info on chia seeds and the origin of modern commercial chia.

I do not know for sure. The Certificate of Analysis that came with my order included in its statement this line: "Treatment: none." You would probably be better served to contact the supplier to confirm if this means no pesticides or GMO.

I honestly don't know. They are supposed to be non GMO, but that is no guaranty that they will sprout.

The Chia seeds are tiny black and white seeds. So they are the seeds. I went to web 's to make sure. Hope this helps.

Jungleman Naturals products are 100% GMO free, meaning that they contain no genetically modified ingredients whatsoever. We use 100% organic corn starch (which is 100% non-GMO by default) in our products.

Yes, all the seeds from MyPatriotSupply.com claim to be non gmo and organic. I have a great herb garden from them.

According to their FAQs section: "Are your products genetically modified?No. All of our products originate from identity-preserved, non-GMO seeds. This means that the seed planted in the ground is non-GMO. We do not guarantee the complete absence of GMO materials in our products because of wind drift, pollinators and our lack of testing equipment."The USDA also notes: "The use of genetic engineering, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), is prohibited in organic products." - See more at: http://blogs.usda.gov/2013/05/17/organic-101-can-gmos-be-used-in-organic-products/#sthash.LHyAXhvz.dpufHope that helps!

I don't think GMO Chia seeds have been invented yet. I also don't mind not buying certified organic since that just means they don't want to pay for being certified. However, they say they don't use pesticides and that it's chemical free. These are the main things when looking for organic. However, they might use fertilizer. I didn't notice that they didn't use that, in which case, it might not be organic.

No, the packages being shipped are no longer shown with Non-GMO label. Hence it is not a guarantee anymore that these are non-GMO!!!

I think if something is organic it has to be non GMO. Might want to research it though. And my seeds came in a packet similar to product image and not a clear plastic bag.

I'm not sure. The ingredients list states: Nothing but all natural chia seed. It also states, "we grow it naturally in the unique environment of the Kimberley region of Western Australia, exactly 15 degrees from the Equator to produce only the best quality chia."

I was concerned about this too and did a bit if research. What I read about these seeds had led me to believe that they aren't GMO. Hope this helps.

Hi Jenny, Even though our chia seeds are technically non GMO and gluten free, we do not advertise our products as being non GMO or gluten free. Thanks, Healthworks

Non GMO means seeds not genetically modified not necessarily organic. But they are offering plants from runners so not grown from seed. Also variety not named.

It is organic so I think it is non-GMO. It does not say anything about it on the label.

I love Starwest's products. I use them in my teas for my tea company: www.etsy.com/shop/phteacompany As far as I know, they are 100% certified organic with no additives or fillers and I believe they are non gmo. Here is their organic certification: http://www.starwest-botanicals.com/msds/SW-Organic-Certificate.pdf

Yes. The info on the page says: "They are 100% Non-GMO, open-pollinated". They are very clear that these are natural organic seeds in their ad. The packaging is amazing and airtight enough to last almost forever. I haven't had a single seed that didn't grow so far. I see no mention of pesticide, just a lot of pride in being natural organic seeds.

Hello KateThank you for your question. Yes, the seeds come from a certified organic farm right here in the United States and as such, they are GMO free. I hope this is helpful. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Thank you Sprout Lady Rita
