On Thursday Feb 22nd 2018 the Appleton Public Library will co-host a free documentary film screening of ‘Deeply Rooted’.

For more than 40 years, John Coykendall — a renowned seed saver, classically trained artist and a master gardener has been preserving the seeds, traditions, oral histories and foodways of a small rural farming community in Louisiana.
‘Deeply Rooted’ is John Coykendall’s Journey to Save Our Seeds and Stories chronicles how Coykendall has tracked down and safeguarded rare and heirloom varieties of crops historically grown in the region and safely returned them to the descendants of farmers who described them to him decades earlier.
