In-person Film Screening: FROM SEED TO SEED

FROM SEED TO SEED follows a young small-scale farming family, as well as a diverse group of Canadian farmers, for a season of challenges and rewards. Terry and Monique pursue their true passion of ecologically sustainable farming practices, and their story of community and resilience takes center stage in this film.

Scientists are working with these farmers using a blend of ancient traditions and cutting edge science to develop improved methods for growing food ecologically and in a changing climate.

This hopeful and award-winning story from Katharina Stieffenhofer provides one perspective on a global social movement towards healthy and regenerative farming practices.

About ForestPlanet:

ForestPlanet plants trees where they will have the greatest benefit to the soil, local habitat, the environment, and communities in peril. We hope this event to raise enough funds to plant 10,000+ trees around the world, which will quickly:

• Stabilize soils
• Help the land retain rainwater
• Provide income and food security to local populations
• Provide habitat for the region's wildlife
