Meaningful Movies Presents: Six Inches of Soil – Feb 19

Six Inches of Soil tells the inspiring story of 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.

Six Inches of Soil, tells the story of remarkable farmers, communities, small businesses, chefs and entrepreneurs who are leading the way to transform how our food is produced and consumed.

Agroecology is an approach to farming that includes ‘regenerative’ farming techniques that work in harmony with, rather than against nature. It focuses on local food systems and shorter supply chains. Agroecology may 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.

A discussion follows the film. Speakers Jenny & Brian, owners of the beloved Ballard pop-up, Tree Swallow Farm will talk about their own journey with local sustainable farming.
