Even though I don't see the mention of GMO on their home page, look what comes up in a search where Victory Seeds pops up:

No GMOs Here! We are an early signor of the Safe Seed Pledge. All of our rare and heirloom seeds are open-pollinated, non-hybrid and are not treated with ...
Mitchel, if any company knows that the seeds they are selling have been contaminated by GMO pollen, they really can't be marketing that as some other variety as it's a new hybrid. Very few of these seed companies produce their own seeds and the seeds are produced under controlled environments. GMO seeds are produced under very controlled environments as well so they're not going to be mixed with conventional seeds. Again, this is for seeds which are typically marketed to consumers, not something like Canola.

I believe Richard uses Google Chrome. I've tried it and liked it except the lack of filtering of ads drove me crazy. I think there are some plug-ins for it but I'm not sure how well they work.
