Earth Day Movie Event
Earth Day Common Ground Film Premiere (Pleasantville campus)
Join us for the worldwide premiere of Common Ground, a film about healing our farms, food systems, and communities through regenerative agriculture.
Common Ground is the highly anticipated sequel to Kiss the Ground, which touched over 1 billion people globally and inspired the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to put $20 billion toward soil health. By fusing journalistic expose’ with deeply personal stories from those on the front lines of the food movement, Common Ground unveils a dark web of money, power, and politics behind our broken food system.
The film reveals how unjust practices forged our current farm system in which farmers of all colors are literally dying to feed us. The film profiles a hopeful and uplifting movement of white, black, and indigenous farmers who are using alternative “regenerative” models of agriculture that could balance the climate, save our health, and stabilize America’s economy – before it’s too late.
