"The soil is the great connector of our lives, the source and destination of all." --Wendell Berry
The Need to Grow
'The Need to GROW' is a documentary that powerfully explores the precariousness of life on a planet with rapidly declining farmable soil. The film highlights the stories of three main characters -- Alicia Serratos, an 8-year-old Girl Scout; Erik Cutter, a regenerative urban farmer; and Michael Smith an inventor. Serratos spearheads a petition for non-GMO Girl Scout cookies; Cutter aims to cultivate food in a resource-efficient manner; and Smith's Green Power House invention serves as 'a closed-loop energy generator that sequesters carbon, grows algae, and produces a nutrient-rich, organic soil vitalizer.'
