I think that at some point there needs to be a quest to the island of Svalbard. The Reason:
The Svalbard Global Seed Vault preserves a wide variety of plant seeds in an underground cavern. The seeds are duplicate samples, or "spare" copies, of seeds held in genebanks worldwide. The seed vault will provide insurance against the loss of seeds in genebanks, as well as a refuge for seeds in the case of large scale regional or global crises. (so says wiki)
Seeds can live in storage for hundreds of years (the oldest seed to produce a plant was 2,000 years old) so in game time they would still be usable.
