WHAT:
Join Solid Ground's Lettuce Link / Marra Farm Giving Garden program for a farm tour followed by an outdoor screening and the Seattle premiere of The Greenhorns at Marra Farm in Seattle’s South Park neighborhood. Marra Farm is a model urban community farm engaging people in sustainable agriculture and education while enhancing local food security.
About the movie: The Greenhorns documentary film, completed after almost three years in production, explores the lives of America's young farming community – its spirit, practices and needs. It is the filmmaker's hope that by broadcasting the stories and voices of these young farmers, we can build the case for those considering a career in agriculture – to embolden them, to entice them, and to recruit them into farming.
