About Sustainable Seed Company Sustainable Seed Company, founded in 2008 John Fendley (aka “Farmer John”). Concerned that many vegetables he remembered from childhood were no longer propagated, John set out to find a way to protect and share rare heirloom seeds. In 2018, many employees of SSC lost their homes in the tragic fire that ravaged Paradise California and surrounding areas. As a consequence SCC partnered with True Leaf Market Seed Company in 2019, to continue offering John’s incredible line of heirlooms.
