Seeds hold history. They carry the genetic blueprints of the past and the key to our future. But when disaster strikes, how far will scientists go to save them before they’re lost forever?

In this episode of The Show About Science, Nate traces the incredible journey of some of the world’s most valuable seeds - from the Middle East to the Arctic Circle to the wheat fields of Kansas. Along the way, he uncovers how a global network of scientists are racing against time to safeguard our food supply for generations to come.

Joining us on this journey are Mark Schapiro, author of Seeds of Resistance: The Fight to Save Our Food Supply, Luigi Guarino from the Crop Trust, Zakaria Kehel from the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), and Bart Panis from the World Banana Collection.
