Most people have no idea how important healthy soil is for growing healthy food and healthy people. We are dependent on soil for most of our food, and how we use soil impacts current global challenges including climate change, resource depletion and peak oil. This documentary will explore soil in a number of countries and climates and include interviews and soil explorations with scientists, activists, academics and farmers including: Patrick Holden, Peter Segger, Vandana Shiva, Ignacio Chapela, John Reganold, Fred Kirschenmann, Warren Webber, David R. Montgomery and more. In Good Heart: Soil and the Mystery of Fertility will explore the soil community from the microscopic to the global.
We plan to release In Good Heart: Soil and the Mystery of Fertility in the Spring of 2010.
