The Need to GROW (2019) - 90 minute Documentary

With an estimated 60 years of farmable soil left on Earth, The Need To GROW offers an intimate look into the hearts of activists and innovators in the food movement - an 8 year old girl challenges the ethics of a beloved organization - a renegade farmer struggles to keep his land as he revolutionizes resource efficient agriculture - and an accomplished visionary inventor faces catastrophe in the midst of developing a game-changing technology.

Narrated by Rosario Dawson (Marvel’s The Defenders, The Lego Batman Movie), TNTG delivers alarming evidence on the importance of healthy soil - revealing not only the potential of localized food production working with nature, but our opportunity as individuals to help regenerate our planet’s dying soils and participate in the restoration of the Earth.

Our source of gut-friendly food is in danger.

These plants that we need for microbiome health are mostly grown from the earth under our feet.

But at the rate we’re going, UN experts predict that we only have 60 years worth of farmable soil left.

So how do we feed the world without destroying the earth?

I’d like to share with you a movie that answers this exact question.

The Need to Grow film, narrated by the brilliant actress and activist Rosario Dawson, is a product of five years’ worth of research and filming.

It focuses not on how to fix our food and farming problem, but also how to regenerate the health of people and our planet.

Discover how restoring our soil leads to:

*Clean water
*Less pollution
* And more nutrient-dense, safer, healing foods!

We may be enjoying our sauerkraut, kimchi, greens, cruciferous veggies, and fruits today…

But without healthy soil, we cannot continue growing healthy gut-friendly food.

So watch how an 8-year-old girl, a renegade farmer, and a visionary inventor seek to save our soil.
