Welcome to the blogsite for the new documentary film "The Seed UnderGround." Produced by American Artist Projects and directed and photographed by Cynthia Buzzard, this is a How-To Survival Guide for Food and You.

"The Seed UnderGround" is produced in collaboration with Vida Verde of San Miguel de Allende, a collective of food activists.

Launched in May 2008 as a source of information for food survival in Central and Southern Mexico, the film features human beings and plant life who are working together to stay alive. "The Seed UnderGround" travels from San Miguel de Allende to Oaxaca and beyond in search of local/sustainable farming, organic markets, indigenous/heirloom seed preservation and other forms of heroic acts in defense of biodiversity.

People who make a difference are people do what they believe in. "The Seed UnderGround" listens to a growing movement, a revolutionary spirit among award winning doers and visionaries who are transforming barren fields into thriving forests, neglected corn fields into organic vegetable farms, indigenous corn seeds into tortillas with political clout and re-starting a farmer's market in riot-worn capital city.

This film makes you hungry for fresh food and fairness. It makes you want to support your local grower and just say No To GMOs.
