Old Forest or Young Meadow – The Marvel of Seeds A New England Forests film, directed by naturalist, local nature documentary filmmaker, Ray Asselin. Plants have evolved over many millions of years. In that time, nature has devised some fascinating methods for them to colonize new sites.

Some, we guarantee, you have never witnessed.
