Event Details

Join us for the screening of Native Seeds: Supplying Restoration, a new 60-minute documentary film that explores the native seed supply chain in the western United States. Filmed over four seasons, this documentary explores the people working to scale up the supply of native seeds to meet the growing restoration demand, weaving together footage with seed collectors, farmers, researchers and land managers across the western United States. We see the staggering scale of damage to vast landscapes, and we meet tenacious people who are finding creative, scrappy solutions to restore ecosystems one seed at a time.

Discussion will follow film screening. Zoom option available.
