*Dear Friends,*

Our planet is 71% water, 29% land mass and a mere 12% of that landmass
grows our food. That is why we need to protect, renew and replenish our
soil, pollinators and seeds for future generations. In The Real Dirt on
Farmer John
<http://collectiveye.us6.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=b8f046279975ec43cc36a650a&id=e009429f12&e=002e70b539>
the
farmer restores the sweet taste of his soil; and in Queen of the Sun

beekeepers
work to protect pollinators from the devastating effects of colony collapse
disorder. In the final film of the trilogy, SEED: the Untold Story
<http://collectiveye.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b8f046279975ec43cc36a650a&id=7760090d27&e=002e70b539>,
Will Bonsall not only protects seed varieties from extinction but
humorously says “seed saving is all about sex. And humans are all obsessed
with sex, even if it’s rutabaga sex.”

*SEED* has won 14 international film festival awards and a robust
theatrical release in over 150 cities, where it was heralded as, “The most
essential, illuminating & enraging film since Food, Inc."

We're excited to announce that* you can now host a COMMUNITY SCREENING
<http://collectiveye.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b8f046279975ec43cc36a650a&id=8c30d97b69&e=002e70b539>

community together to help protect seeds. You can show *SEED* to audiences

*SEED* features Will Bonsall as well as many other colorful seed keepers
who are passionately renewing a seed culture around the world. As Rowen
White says, "seeds are tiny time capsules of life’s rich and layered
stories. It is a precious common heritage and is an essential component to
the future sustainability our food. There is an urgent need to protect seed
sovereignty; the corporations who dominate the seed industry are not
working for the common people.”

Our goal is that *SEED* may empower and strengthen a growing movement to
care for the earth-- to carry on a 12,000 year old heritage as seed
keepers. If you were inspired by the film and would like to contribute a

*Will Bonsall's Essential Guide to Radical, Self-Reliant Gardening*
Innovative Techniques for Growing Vegetables, Grains, and Perennial Food
Crops with Minimal Fossil Fuel and Animal Inputs
"Society does not generally expect its farmers to be visionaries." Perhaps
not, but longtime Maine farmer and homesteader Will Bonsall does possess a
unique clarity of vision that extends all the way from the finer points of
soil fertility and seed saving to exploring how we can transform
civilization and make our world a better, more resilient place.
In Will Bonsall's Essential Guide to Radical, Self-Reliant Gardening,
Bonsall imparts a wealth of knowledge drawn from his more than forty years
of farming experience.
For him the solution is, first and foremost, greater self-reliance,
especially in the areas of food and energy. "My goal," he writes, "is not
to feed the world, but to feed myself and let others feed themselves. If we
all did that, it might be a good beginning.
