Movie Screening and Seed Share: The Hidden Life of Trees

In connection with the Climate Hope exhibition, co-curated by Duke students for Nasher’s Academic Focus Gallery, this documentary will shed light on the research of forester and writer Peter Wohlleben, who studies forests as interconnected networks of life force and energy. He teaches the viewer to see forests through the lens of a tree!

End the night with a seed sharing co-hosted with the Duke Campus Farm. The farm will be on site sharing Benne sesame, coriander and Jernigan yellow cabbage collards seeds, along with planting/care instructions and tips. The farm will have a limited amount of other varieties of seeds and will share them with attendees while quantities last (Alabama Red Okra, Whippoorwill Field peas, Purple Hull field peas, Maggie Flowers pole beans).

Visit the Duke Campus Farm website to learn more about the great work they do and their upcoming volunteering opportunities.

Dinner before the show? Make reservations at the Nasher Café ahead of time!
