The Film Common Ground is the highly anticipated sequel to the juggernaut success documentary, Kiss the Ground.

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.

A panel discussion with John Roulac, Co-Producer Common Ground Film Ana-Alicia Carr, Director of Policy & Coalitions LA Food Policy Council will follow the film. The panel will be moderated by Sarah Spitz, UC Master Gardener, Los Angeles County.
