Before the Plate

The questions, the stories and the people behind where our food comes from and how it gets to our plate. A feature length documentary

[Before the Plate @beforetheplate]

@thefarmbabe Yes, creating a documentary that discusses modern agriculture in a positive light is very difficult due to optics of funding. We had a tiny budget for this doc for that reason. It’s a catch 22. More funding equals better project but less trust :(

@thefarmbabe @foodevomovie Thanks Farm Babe!
