I bought them specifically because it said "non GMO". It also said heirloom.

Terri, I was wondering this myself before purchasing. This is the answer they give on their website regarding GMOs. 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.

Here is a list of the products made by Garden of Life that are verified GMO free. The enzymes aren't on the list, but with their committment to using GMO ingredients, my guess is that they are GMO free or pretty close. I know it's not a straight answer, but hope it helps a l little http://www.nongmoproject.org/find-non-gmo/search-participating-products/search/?brandId=384

If you go to BOB'S RED MILL website you will find this: I went there and copied it for you. 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

All of Bob's Red Mill products come from identity preserved seeds. This means the seed planted in the ground is non-GMO. Bob's Red Mill simply can't guarantee against cross pollination due to natural occurrences such as wind drift, so they do not label their products GMO-free. They are only organic if stated on packaging.

As much as possible. This is from their website: "I get questions regarding the GMO status of our products so I thought I would post here for our friends. All Great River Organic products are produced from non-gmo grains. It is true however that there is some cross pollination that occurs in nature especially in corn so while the planted seeds are non-gmo you can pick up traces of gmo in testing. Typically these are at a very very low percentage."

Sorry, I have no way of determining that. I really think it has more to do with what you do with the seed after receiving it when you talk organic. I also don't know if the seeds were genetically modified. You should be able to get some information from the seed packet. If not, you could try contacting the supplier.

Laurie, that is a good question. It does not say certified organic on the bag. However, I checked the product description on the website and it says they are. Normally I would be suspicious of a claim without seeing the certification mark on the bag, but looking at the website the company refuses to use GMO seeds and I like that.

Not GMO, but wheat and other grains in the USA are sprayed with Round Up at time of harvest to yield more seeds and to make harvesting easier for the combines. I only use certified organic anymore.

hi i looked up on their website and the flax seeds are certified organic and non-gmo. i have used this brand for years and i find it to be the best available. a little bit more expensive than other brands, but, well worth it.

As far as I know there are no GMOs But I do not believe it is certified. However this is really a terrible product and I would not recommend it.

Yes. Pkg says Organic Alfalfa-Sprouting. Genetically engineered wouldn't be organic. These seeds produce delicious sprouts. We'll buy them again.

As far as I know they do not and they claim not to use any GMO products. See here http://blog.bobsredmill.com/featured-articles/our-policy-regarding-gmos/ I use a lot of their products daily Brenda

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

No. They are "FREE OF Gelatin, Yeast, Corn, Milk, Eggs, Soy, Gluten, Salt, Nuts, Shellfish, Artificial Colors, Artificial Flavors and Preservatives"...and non GMO :-) These are the ONLY vitamins that my vegan/allergy ridden child can take :-)

I use the gluten free masa every week to make tortillas.

They are certified organic which meens that legally they can not be GMO. As always though being a consumer we simply trusting that the seller is providing what they say. They sprout well and are verry tasty though. Hope that helps.
