Common Ground

Common Ground is the sweeping and uplifting story of the pioneers of the “Regenerative Movement” who are creating a new food system that produces tremendous quantities of nutritionally dense food while balancing the climate, healing our bodies, and bringing our entire ecosystem back to life.

Common Ground is the award-winning documentary about how we can restore our soil, health, and planet with regenerative agriculture practices. It features Laura Dern, Jason Momoa, Donald Glover, Rosario Dawson, Woody Harrelson, and Ian Somerhalder along with farmers, ranchers, scientists, scholars, and more! You will walk away feeling hopeful about how we can reverse desertification, biodiversity loss, and grow a healthy future for all!

 

It is the highly anticipated sequel to the juggernaut success documentary, Kiss the Ground, which touched over 1 billion people globally and inspired the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to put $20 billion toward soil health. By fusing journalistic expose’ with deeply personal stories from those on the front lines of the food movement, Common Ground unveils a dark web of money, power, and politics behind our broken food System.

 

The film reveals how unjust practices forged our current farm system in which farmers of all colors are literally dying to feed us. 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 our economy before it’s too late.
