| | Courier Report FER-1544 DISPATCHED: 07/03/10 DELIVERED: 10/03/10 Megan Prelinger My friend Severine von Tscharner Fleming is an activist and filmmaker who advocates for young farmers. Her website, project hub, and film-in-progress are all called The Greenhorns. (www.thegreenhorns.org)
Severine was in California organizing young farmers and transporting bean stocks at a time in early 09 when she was also shooting film and
working on her movie. Rick made digital files for her of a number of films from the Prelinger Archives on the history of agriculture and
the industrialization of the food supply that we hopes she could use in her film. The day she dropped by to pick up the films, she was
participating in a farmer-to-farmer transport of a huge carload of beans. In exchange for the films she gave us several pounds of beans.
The varieties contributed to the feral trade cafe for AV10 are Purple Runners, Pinquito, and Red Kidney.
