Open Sesame Movie Showing

The Story of Seeds

Seeds are as important to life as the air we breath. They hold the blueprints to grow the food we need to survive. Much of the seed diversity has been lost, and with it goes the genetic diversity to grow a wide range of plants in a changing climate. Seeds should be cared for in the hands of people not managed by corporations. Open Sesame is a powerful and positive film that describes how many people are taking the initiative to keep seeds open sourced for everyone.

Join us for this moving film presented by SETI and the Organic Food Council of Manitoba.

Watch the Trailer.
