Saw "Seed Hunter" on TV Ontario on Saturday, January 23, 2010 at 7:00 pm Eastern Standard Time in Toronto.
Excellent film.
Should be shown every where.

There are seed saving organizations in many countries, like Canada's Seeds of Diversity and the American Seed Savers Exchange, that work to preserve biodiversity at the grassroots level. We've lost many old varieties already, and it's up to the people to preserve what is remaining. I encourage all reading this to look into your own country's seed saving organization; it's a great place to start your journey in seed saving.

Hi, I had a dream of being in the future with Dr Street sitting proud with a candy dish that was made of ancient seeds, similar to a thick and chewy marzipan, but a variety of an ancient chick pea with higher carbs and sweet taste because of a very high amylase content.
Unique taste and vivid dream I had.

I have a home brew program called Skyboard software which is taking hold in the aerospace industry, for collaboratively storing research to database.

Would love to buy some chick pea seeds from you, and maybe get a job out there for while. I've travelled USA and collected seeds. will be planting in New Mexico and also Intieor West Canada

Mate you are a legend! Good to see ozzies out there hunting down the ancient codes that have fed past generations of humanity. Im sure mother nature has already shown us the way to feed ourselves naturally without a million different pesticides and false genetics. Mendel found it im sure you will too.
Althought must say your funding looked a worry! where can i donate some cash?

Dear Mr. Ken and friends,

I enjoyed watching the documentary very much. I think your effort is a very noble one (but bribing is not good, if you know what I mean). And at the end of the show, I was very happy to see that the farmer finally has something to help him with his farming problems. I'm sure that a lot of farmers everywhere in the world will benefit from what the Seed Hunters are doing. I hope the documentary will inspire young scientists to continue this effort in order to improve and save the lives millions around the world.

Greetings from Malaysia.

PS: I hope the Russian seed bank finally got their own database system...

i am interested to know if any of the cultivated chickpeas that where found in the last village are perhaps been put out to farmers to trial and save seeds from . Or are they all in labs and vaults in the hands of a few? I am a seed saver from South Africa and apart from the good old fashioned garden variety veg I am taking a stronger and longer look at our traditional heritage seed in S.A. and Africa.Hopefully the forgotten and more drought tolerant seed varieties are been farmed and saved by a broad spectrum of farmers to ensure that as much as possibly is saved and distributed .I speak quite frankly about this in light of the fact of the GM maize that failed so completely in our South African fields. Sure the crops have got to be tested but am concerned that the 3rd world countries are sometimes seen by some to be outdoor labs in the big scheme of things. Loved the Doccie and it most certainly seems as if you are a very commited and passionate seedman.....just make sure to spread it around a bit. Your fellow Gardener,
Shannon

Hi Seed Hunter watchers

It's great to read all your messages and reactions to watching the documentary. It really pleases all of so much who worked hard to bring the documentary to you all. Keep telling your friends and if you want to buy copies of the DVD you can do via our website. We are setting up a Paypal system soon.
The doco has recently won quite a few awards too (South Africa, China, Japan, Finland and Australia)- which is great news.
