Anna Butterfield sees seeds as cultural artefacts, with each bean or seed carrying the story of its cultivation.
And when you consider there are 300,000 edible plants in the world – and we only eat around 2,000 of those – AND over 75 percent of that is restricted to a mere 12 plant varieties worldwide – maybe there's room for growth, especially in our own back gardens.
Amelia Nurse joins Anna Butterfield from the Kapiti Seedbank in her kitchen with a cup of freshly brewed tea to discuss seeds.
