ABOUT ‘GREENER PASTURES’
This timely, true story captures the day-to-day lives of four small, Midwestern, multi-generational family farms over the course of four years. Through an intimate, observational lens we examine the various farm stressors, policies and politics farmers must maneuver to survive, connecting the dots between mental health, industrialization, food production and climate change. It is a story of perseverance, patience and determination that tackles nothing less than the future of farming in the heartland of America.
