The GreenhornsDirected by: Severine Von Tscharner Fleming This film takes us around the country meeting the future of American agriculture: a passionate set of new entrepreneurs, rural and urban revivers and stubborn optimists. We learn about why these young people have chosen agriculture as a venue for direct action, the obstacles they face gaining access to land, to training, to startup capital, and the transformative potential of local food, healthy farming, and bravely building the new economy. Some on small plots, some on family land, mostly oriented towards sustainable agriculure, diverse production, direct marketing and adding value, these young farmers are the leading edge of a movement that continues to expand. Directed and produced by longtime young farming organizer Severine v T Fleming, the film takes to the middle of the action, and to the very birth of the National Young Farmers Coalition, whose marker bill currently stands for the 2012 Farmbill.
