Told through the voices of farmers, “What’s Organic About ‘Organic’?” delves into the issues that arise when a grassroots agricultural movement evolves into a booming international market. As the film moves from farm fields to government meetings to industry trade shows, we meet four farmers who are involved in different aspects of the organic world. Because, when you stop to think about it – from the farmers on the ground to the citizens at the grocery store, from government bureaucracy to the global economy – how do we really understand what’s organic about “organic”?

From the filmmaker:

I am pleased to present to you a teaser/trailer for the documentary film that I have been working on for the past two years, “What’s Organic About ‘Organic’?” The film will not only offer viewers a glimpse into the lives of the farmers/characters who breathe life into the organic movement, but also will help foster an awareness of the issues at the heart of conscientious consumption and responsible citizenship.
