We have grown and adapted since our start in 1945, but our focus on building a better world has never changed.

In 2019, we transitioned our name from USC Canada to SeedChange, to reflect our work with family farmers around the world. To mark the important milestone in our nearly 75 year history, we put together a small keepsake booklet to celebrate our history and look to our future. Enjoy!
