Around the Same Table

MY World 360° September 2019 Climate Action and Reducing Inequalities Playlist selection

A story about the importance of sustainable farming and the community it brings together. Our community includes a long-standing farming culture with family farms that go back generations. There is also an influx of progressive farming cooperatives, and farm-to-table initiatives, that have come here more recently. We chose to depict what these farming communities have in common–which is building sustainability for a brighter future for all of us.
