Thought you might be interested in this project, if you didn't already know
about it, perhaps even want to participate in it/support it/pass the word.
It'd be great if the documentary they create can speak powerfully for the
gift and benefits of organic agriculture, both to us personally and as a
community - as a source of joy and a way to avoid the great harm "modern"
industrial ag practices, like toxic pesticides, toxic sludge, etc.
Seems like this is a chance for us to help it to do just that!
I don't know any more than what is below; please contact the producers for
additional information.

PBS ORGANIC DOCUMENTARY!
We would like to announce, the filming of an organic documentary premiering
nationally on PBS. "Why Organic?" will explore the rapidly growing world of
organics and show that organic farming is not merely the commitment to
refrain from using chemicals, but a way of life."
Scientists and experts will clarify the terrible risks involved in using
conventional agribusiness farming techniques, as well as discuss the truths
and myths surrounding organic foods. This film will be essential to
educating viewers of the importance of organic farming and will make clear
that: "Organic farming is the answer both economically and ecologically."
