a film documenting extreme weather events (specifically in 2023) in Franklin County through farmers’ struggles, and how that shapes consumer experience.
The extreme weather in 2023 left farmers struggling with funds to make it to their next season. Damaging floods and late frosts contributed to major crop loss and revenue loss for the local farms in our county. This film documents 3 local farms (Clark Brothers Orchards, Red Fire Farm, and Just Roots) as they navigate difficult weather patterns in order to continue their livelihood. Franklin County’s strength comes from local farms who provide nutritional food to the public through farm stands and farmers markets. The mission of our film is to bring awareness to drastically changing weather, and that by supporting our local farms we can keep Franklin County strong, profitable, and healthy.
