The Story of Seeds - Sutton Landcare Group

Guest speaker:    Screening of the movie Open Sesame:  The Story of Seeds

One of the world's most precious resources is at risk. This film will help others learn what is at stake and what can be done to protect the source of nearly all our food: SEEDS. While the price of gold and oil skyrockets the fate of our most priceless commodity is ignored. Seeds provide the basis for everything from fabric to food to fuels. They are as essential to life as the air we breathe or the water we drink... but given far less attention. Over the past one hundred years, seeds have steadily shifted from being common heritage to sovereign property. This film tells the story of seeds by following the challenges and triumphs of some of their most tireless stewards and advocates.

I am sure it will be fascinating viewing and that discussion afterwards will be interesting.
