We’re facing a lot of challenges right now -- this film is creating a movement to solve one of our greatest challenges: balancing the climate and securing our future. How about some good news for a change? Here it is: we can reverse global warming. The solution is called “Regenerative Agriculture” and this film presents the research, practice, and hope we need to move forward. Together. People are calling KISS THE GROUND “The Most Important Film You’ll Ever Watch” -- which is a really big claim. But it just may be true. Regenerative Agriculture can: Revive farmer prosperity, reduce flooding & draught, replenish fresh-water sources, reduce fire hazards, reverse global warming, recreate regional access to nutrient-dense food, reduce toxic pesticides & fertilizers, reduce dead zones & water pollution, reverse extinction, and reconnect humanity & nature. The Friends of the Farmers Market, a 501c3 nonprofit organization governed by a volunteer board of directors, provides support to the Blacksburg Farmers Market by educating the community on the benefits of locally grown and sustainably produced food, providing development and business support on behalf of vendors, providing effective market management, and fostering a vibrant local economy and community gathering place.
