About the Film: Our planet is heating up and one of the first casualties will be the crops that supply our food. Scientists are working overtime to find solutions including going back to the ancestral origins of our staple foods. Seed Hunter (2008; 60 min.; directed by Sally Ingleton) will take you on a remarkable journey from the drought ravaged farms of Australia, to the heart of the Middle East, to the mountains of Tajikistan where charismatic Australian scientist Dr Ken Street ? a real life version of Indiana Jones - and his team of ?gene detectives? hunt for plant genes that will help our food withstand the impact of 21st century global warming. Along the way we meet farmers around the world who are struggling to grow crops in a climate that?s gone haywire, as well as scientists working at the front line of gene technology to save tomorrow?s food. At journey?s end, deep in the Arctic Circle, Ken deposits his bounty of seed in the newly constructed seed bank known as the ?doomsday vault.? About the Potluck: For the vegetarian potluck, attendees are encouraged to contribute food produced within a 100-mile radius of their homes (Santa Barbara to San Diego). If that?s not possible, then strive to purchase organic foods grown within the closest distance.
