“As the new film, Organic Rising, created by Pulitzer Prize and Emmy award-winning filmmaker, Anthony Suau, points out – today’s food crisis is the civil rights movement of our time….”
From Christina Sarich, at Natural Society:
“Organic farming and gardening clearly isn’t just the old-timers way any more. It’s the way of a sustainable world. Younger farmers are coming into the fray more so than at any other time in our history except the 1920s, largely in response to our dilapidated and corrupt agricultural system.
“The strongest myth is that organic agriculture is warm and fuzzy but it isn’t going to feed the world – but that is absolutely not true.” – US Farmer
There are socio-economic, political, environmental, and of course health aspects to this revolution in our food sustainability. Organic farming is explored in depth in Organic Rising, and many myths are dispelled. It is only with truth that farmers and consumers will wrest the current food–making system from monopolizing companies like Monsanto and once again grow nourishment.”
