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. For more information For

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.

Drueckler, Wolfgang Hiepe
*26 March-9 April: Lead Facilitator: Trish Allen*

knowledge and skills with others ever since. Co-tutors: Dion Workman, Graeme
North, Sabine Drueckler, Wolfgang Hiepe
