This powerful film explores the resurgence of urban farming in American cities. It showcases how diverse individuals are reclaiming lost skills and reconnecting people with their food, especially in Los Angeles.

Three LA residents exemplify this movement: Rishi, who traded a Silicon Valley career for backyard farming; Ron, who fought the city for his right to grow food on a public strip; and Adam and Jenna, a young couple cultivating their relationship through urban farming.

Urban farming is a growing global environmental movement, with unique significance in Los Angeles. This film was distributed by FilmBuff for Grist.
