Film – Six Inches of Soil

May 23 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

 

 

‘Six Inches of Soil’ tells the inspiring story of three young British farmers standing up against the industrial food system and transforming the way they produce food – to heal the soil, our health and provide for local communities. Regenerative farming techniques work in harmony with, rather than against nature. It focuses on local food systems and shorter supply chains. The advantages are numerous: we get to know who is growing our food and how, farmers get paid a fair price and have the satisfaction of producing healthy food in a healthy environment. It may also be our best chance in the face of climate change: it keeps carbon in the ground and creates resilient systems in the face of climate uncertainty. There will be a panel Q and A afterwards, including Colin Ramsey, the film director, Tom Pearson, a local farmer, and professors David Nally and Shailaja Fennell. More details here.
