November 8, 2014—Join us for an informative afternoon of “seedy” activities! Bring seeds to share for a local seed exchange and enjoy a special “early release” viewing of the feature film Open Sesame — The Story Of Seeds by Sean Kaminsky. We will also have a panel discussion offering growing tips, updates on the status of seed work by the Hawai‘i Public Seed Initiative, and a question and answer session.
Schedule:
1 p.m.—Check-in for Seed Exchange
PLEASE DO NOT BRING ANY plants, keiki, or materials with soil! Please bring SEED ONLY so we do not spread Little Fire Ant. Please do not bring/share papaya seeds (unless tested and verified as GMO-free) and brassica seeds (to reduce spread of blackrot).
2 – 3 p.m.—Opening Pule and Seed Exchange
3:30 – 5:30 p.m.—Screening of Open Sesame — The Story Of Seeds followed by Panel Discussion
