Farm News & Tom's Reflections
Organic Rising - A Worthy Cause to Support
Last year in late Spring, Anthony Suau, a Pulitzer Prize winning photojournalist, stopped by the Farm on an assignment to document and experience first hand the work of organic farmers in this country. Mr Suau has released a video - ORGANIC RISING, a summary of what he documented up to this point. The video explores how the "Organic Farming Movement" has matured into a healthy alternative to replace today's unsustainable food and farming system. The next phase is to produce a full-length educational documentary of how Organic Farming is creating a more abundant and nutritious food supply where consumers and farmers participate in creating a sustainable food system. Having met Mr. Suau I am convinced he has the integrity, courage and expertise to take on this challenging subject. I encourage everyone to support him by sharing the video and donating to make this promising endeavor a success. Check out the video and see if you recognize some familiar Live Earth Farm sites and faces!
