A screening of 'Common Ground' + post-film community conversation on the future of Solano County's local food system.
About this Event

is the highly anticipated sequel to the juggernaut success documentary, , which touched over 1 billion people globally and inspired the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to put $20 billion toward soil health. By fusing journalistic expose’ with deeply personal stories from those on the front lines of the food movement, Common Ground unveils a dark web of money, power, and politics behind our broken food system. The film reveals how unjust practices forged our current farm system in which farmers of all colors are literally dying to feed us. The film profiles a hopeful and uplifting movement of white, black, and indigenous farmers who are using alternative “regenerative” models of agriculture that could balance the climate, save our health, and stabilize America’s economy – before it’s too late.

This presentation is co-hosted by the Solano Local Food System Alliance and Benicia Public Library. A community conversation will take place following the film, to envision the future of agriculture and how to strengthen the local food system in Solano County. Alliance members from Cultivate Community Food Coop and Sustainable Solano will moderate the discussion.

Free and open to the public. Space is limited.
