In my garden, I avoid even hybrids because I want to be able to save seeds. It's that whole SS thing. What happens if you don't have access to a seed catalog when you need it? And it's just exciting to have the chance of discovering a mutant that tastes better, stores better, etc.
I have a technical background and a PhD in biochemistry and I'm surprised at the emphasis people put on organic/non-GMO on the basis of health. GMO crops and big-ag are a problem on so many levels. Let's not just talk about the health part. There are economic, moral, historical, and SS reasons to object to GMO.
