Hopedance Media and Santa Barbara Permaculture Network
Presents:

A Film from the Seed Savers Network
"Our Seeds: Seeds Blong Yumi"

Wednesday , January 20, 2010 7pm, Donation $7/Student $5
Santa Barbara Central Library, Faulkner Gallery

I n honor of 2nd Annual Seed Swap Day, S.B. Hopedance Media and Santa Barbara Permaculture Network , presents a film by the Seed Saver's Network called "Our Seeds: Seeds Blong Yumi" Wed January 20 at the Santa Barbara Public Library, Faulkner Gallery.


"Our Seeds: Seeds Blong Yumi is a film celebrating the keepers of the seeds, the farmers and gardeners who preserve and share the source of our food heritage.

A small crew comprising Seed Savers Network (www.seedsavers.net) directors, Australians Michel Fanton and Jude Fanton, took a hundred and sixty hours of footage in eleven countries: Spain, France, Italy, India, Sri Lanka, China, Vietnam, Taiwan, Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands. There are interviews of farmers and expert commentators and documented seed saving, farming methods and cultural activities in both first world and tribal locations. People in advanced countries, such as Taiwan, Spain, France and Italy share the same sentiments as indigenous Pacific farmers when it comes to traditional varieties.

The film explores the relationship between traditional biodiversity and traditional culture in the wide-ranging locations and shows that there are the same problems and solutions in each of them. It is a David and Goliath story where resilience and persuasive logic triumph over seemingly invincible corporate agribusiness.

The Film encourages viewers to work in solidarity with indigenous farmers around the world to restore traditional farming and plants to their rightful place as highly important assets of local communities and indigenous peoples.


The producers of "Our Seeds: Seeds Blong Yumi " are distributing free 1000 DVDs to tribal schools, colleges, churches, hospitals and non-government agencies in the Pacific Region. The intention is for these agencies to show the film to their constituencies out in the villages.. They will also travel to Western Samoa, Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu and Solomon Islands this year to screen the film and train community workers to take it to the villages for screening. The community workers will apply the lessons of the film to their current challenges and they will inventory their unique food plants assets and start their own local seed organization or network . The film has an original English soundtrack and Pacific Pigin (a melange of Bislama of Vanuatu, Tok Pisin of PNG and Solomons Pigin). Subtitle options are English and French.

With the threat to local open pollinated seeds and root crops, it is time again for the Seed Savers and friends here in Santa Barbara to come and celebrate the ancient art of Seed Saving and Swapping. This Film's focus is to promote development of local seed saving groups and seed exchanges.


The film will be shown takes place at the Santa Barbara Public Library, Faulkner Gallery, 40 East Anapamu St, in downtown Santa Barbara, on Wednesday, January 20, 7-9pm, 2010. No reservations are required, donation $7.

Two Permaculture Design Courses will be held on Rainbow Valley Farm in New
Zealand this summer. This is the original 72-hour design course - graduates
will be awarded a certificate from Bill Mollison's Permaculture Institute in
Australia.

This is an intensive 14-day course where students have the chance to get
fully immersed in the permaculture way of thinking and acting while studying
on a working permaculture farm. The course covers sustainable living systems
for a wide variety of landscapes and climates. It includes the application
of permaculture principles to food production, home design, construction,
energy conservation and alternative economic structures. Students are
invited to bring details of their own sites or potential sites.

Darren is an Australian who has been teaching permaculture for over 16 years
on 5 continents. He is an experienced and sought after designer with more
than 1,200 designs to his name. Co-tutors: Trish Allen, Graeme North, Sabine
Drueckler, Wolfgang Hiepe

*26 March-9 April: Lead Facilitator: Trish Allen*

about putting the ethics and principals of permaculture into action. They
achieved this with great success and have enthusiastically shared their
knowledge and skills with others ever since. Co-tutors: Dion Workman, Graeme
North, Sabine Drueckler, Wolfgang Hiepe
