About From Seed to Seed

From Seed to Seed is a series of 40 short films allowing anyone to learn how to produce vegetable seeds. It provides the basics of theory and practice, an ABC of seed production and shows all the necessary steps for producing seeds of 40 vegetable species. From Seed to Seed was produced by Longo Maï and the Forum Civique Européen (European Civic Forum), two European associations which actively participate in saving agricultural biodiversity and advocate for the defense of open-pollinated seeds.

Drawings and animated drawings
Myleine Guiard-Schmid creates drawings and animated drawings for the cinema and also practices the visual arts. Cinema, sculpture, painting… the arts are her passion, her profession. Art has an undeniable power to reveal, to tell stories or denounce with beauty and style. myleineguiardschmid.wordpress.com / [email protected]

The film producers
Longo maï was founded in 1973. It is made up of nine self-managed cooperative farms in Europe. They produce and process a wide variety of local cereal and vegetable crops. All of the cooperatives produce part of their own seeds and organise regular seed swaps, thereby helping to increase interest for such varieties and encouraging more people to produce their own seeds. The European Civic Forum is an international solidarity network active, among others, in the defense of open-pollinated seeds and small-scale farming that respects social rights.
