THE REAL DIRT ON FARMER JOHN

By Taggart Siegel and Teri Lang

ITVS Community is proud to support THE REAL DIRT ON FARMER JOHN with a variety of community outreach events and materials, in anticipation of its national broadcast on Independent Lens on June 13, 2006.

SHOW DESCRIPTION:

This unprecedented story captures the rise and fall of the Peterson family farm and its resurrection through John's courage to build a new form of community. Against all odds, eccentric Peterson abandons conventional chemical farming and fights local hysteria to build a thriving organic farm and a progressive farm community.
