Spring is here, and it’s the perfect time to think about seeds. Planting them, saving them, and caring about them. Seeds are in trouble, but there’s much we can do to help them out. 

The first step is to learn more. Open Sesame: The Story of Seeds, tells how seeds are at risk, and what can be done to protect them. Seeds provide the basis for everything from fabric, to food to fuels. They are as essential to life as the air we breathe or 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. Watch the trailer…

Come see this excellent film, tell your seed stories and learn how you can help save these precious life-giving resources.
