Our Seeds: Seeds Blong Yumi is a very special film that celebrates traditional food plants and the people who grow them. Filmed by Jude and Michel Fanton, founders of the Seed Savers Network, it features gardeners from all over the world including Spain, France, Italy, India, Sri Lanka, China, Vietnam, Taiwan, Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. Our Seeds looks at the problems of globalised food based on hybrid plants that require pesticides and synthetic fertilisers. The film shows how individuals and small groups have solved these problems, and is a celebration of the ‘seed keepers’ that stand at the source of humanity’s diverse food heritage.
This is a Sustainable Illawarra activity and open only to residents of Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama. No RSVP required but spaces are limited. Venue is Level 9 Function Room, Wollongong City Council 41 Burelli Street, Wollongong.
