for the week of may 1st

seed: the untold story screening

The seeds used to grow food are essential to human life. Over the past century, 94 percent of all seed varieties have disappeared. Biotech chemical companies control the majority of those remaining. Seed production is an important emerging issue. While most Canadians accept that others do it for us, having the freedom to grow our own food is a basic right on which human survival depends in many parts of the world.

The Marda Loop Justice Film Festival is hosting a free film screening of “Seed: The Untold Story” on Tuesday, May 9th at 7pm at River Park Church Auditorium (3818 14A St. SW, Calgary). Get out, learn a little, listen to the panel discussion after, and support the MLJFF!
