Grow!

It’s not just Old MacDonald on the farm anymore. All across the U.S. there is a growing movement of educated young people who are leaving cities to take up an agrarian life.

180x135_growIt’s not just ‘Old MacDonald’ on the farm anymore. All across the U.S. there is a growing movement of college educated young people who are leaving the cities to take up an agrarian life. What they are discovering is a strong sense of community, new ways to address a broken food system and a way to fulfill their dreams of doing something meaningful with their lives.

GROW! takes a look at this new generation of sustainable farmers through the eyes, hearts and minds of 10 passionate, idealistic and fiercely independent young growers in Georgia. In the film they speak of both the joys and the challenges involved in tending the land.
