Hi! I am courions. Are your quinoa seeds the south american specie or are the north american specie? If it is the south american one, what is your position on invasive species?

Hi Luis! Quinoa is a pseudo-grain that originated in South America. I/we have an adamant disdain for invasive species! Especially noxious weeds! That is why I take every opportunity to pull out plants such as tansy, canada thistle, hounds tounge etc. Luckily Quinoa is an annual and incapable of self seeding so (as far as I know) there is no need for you to worry about it becoming invasive.

By the way a really great resource for noxious weeds/ invasive species in our area (I don't know where your area is.... but we are in BC) is: http://www.bcinvasives.ca/
