Lundale Farm and the Colonial Theater are excited to present a special screening of “Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)”, a thought-provoking documentary series that explores innovative ways to combat climate change through regenerative agriculture.
About the Film:
Can an underutilized grazing method, mimicking the natural movements of bison, help farmers overcome debt, restore depleted soils, rebuild wildlife habitats, and sequester significant amounts of carbon? For years, cattle have been considered environmental villains. But what if they hold the key to averting catastrophic climate change?

For years, cattle have been considered environmental villains. But what if they hold the key to averting catastrophic climate change?
Guided by director Peter Byck, “Roots So Deep” follows farmers who are adopting adaptive grazing practices and their traditional neighbors. The series poses a crucial question: even if the science proves adaptive grazing benefits the land and the farmers’ finances, will traditional farmers be willing to change? Can they become climate heroes?
