The Need to Grow

Some of the best time I've ever spent. This movie has sparked a movement in me and creating composted soils with biochar is the topic I talk to with almost everyone I meet. Microbes!!!

Check out this film!

Inspiring movie showcasing inspiring people who are contributing to change in the world and showing us how we can be involved in the solutions too. It is no secret (though not yet widely known) that industrial agriculture practices are toxifying land, water, air and food supply. A side effect of their industrial practices is a scary loss of topsoil yearly... food is made possible by soil. Lucky for us we can support and regenerate our soils and thus our local ecosystems. We can all contribute to the healing that needs to happen. This documentary tells the stories of people who are doing that and shows us how we can contribute! I highly recommend watching.

What an incredible documentary. There was so much quality information, great story telling, and most importantly...SOLUTIONS. It also hit close to home since two of the featured people are from the area I live in. It has activated me to want to get involved with changing some policies in our area to make food quality a priority and doing what we can as a community to reverse climate change. I also absolutely loved learning about the Green Power House and would love to help get these made and implemented all around the world. This documentary made me hopeful for our future, only if we start making changes now. There are so many opportunities to get involved. Watch until the very end to see how you can help positively impact your life, your community, our country, and the world.

This documentary addresses some important issues in a decent way. I can't agree that the Green Power House is actually a closed-circuit system, as it requires biomass input. The filming itself wasn't very engaging. Overall, worth seeing.

My partner and I watched this film a few weeks ago and were incredibly moved by it. I'm a holistic nutritionist and coach (and lover of nature) and I truly appreciated all of the information, stories, and beauty in the film. And while I had anticipated that it would be informative, I hadn't expected the incredible emotional impact it would have-as deeply as I experience nature, I had no idea how much I would cry during a film about soil! Thank you to the whole TNTG team for doing what was clearly a TON of hard work to provide this film to people. The information in this documentary is absolutely vital, and I hope every single human watches it!
