The Seeds of Change Research Farm and Gardens was founded in 1989 in Gila, New Mexico[2] by Gabriel Howearth. By 1996, the Research Farm moved north to a site closer to the company's Santa Fe offices. The farm included over a thousand varieties of plants on six acres of land originally cultivated by the Tewa people on a flood plain along the Rio Grande in El Guique, New Mexico. The farm was certified organic by Oregon Tilth.[citation needed]
In August 2010, Mars announced that it would close the farm and move some management to Los Angeles. A final tour of the farm was provided on Saturday, 14 August, 2010. A spokesperson for Mars indicated the closure was due to a "strategic shift" and that not all the employees would retain their jobs.[3]
