On Monday, June 28 we will screen the documentary, From Seed to Seed.  Through a group of Canadian organic farmers—both large-scale and small-scale—we experience a full growing season with all of its rewards as well as the challenges of a changing climate.  When Terry and Monique left the opera to pursue their true passion—ecological, small-scale farming—their story of community and resilience took center stage. FROM SEED TO SEED follows their young family and a diverse group of farmers in Southern Manitoba, for a season of challenges and rewards.  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 story provides a Canadian perspective on a global social movement that regenerates the land, farming, and communities toward a healthier future for us all.  Directed and written by Katharina Stieffenhofer.

Following the screening we will have a panel discussion and Q&A with local ecological experts:  Marcus Decant, Kim Culotta, and Nicole Johnson.
