I wonder how many of the farmers who sell their produce at local farmer's markets have perhaps just gone to Home Depot, Walmart, and the like to buy their seeds?

There is no guarantee that those seeds are not GM.

You can of course buy seeds that are not GM but I wonder how many do?

That is not something that I worry about when I buy my seeds. I am more worried about the days the produce requires to mature. We have a very short growing season in Calgary and in the end, I like to grow stuff that I can actually eat. My garden itself though is 100% organic.
