Others are finally realizing what the Vetters have known for decades: eating food grown with pesticides is bad for us, and soil is key to our very survival. That\u2019s why, on the Vetter farm, their most important \u201ccrop\u201d is the soil.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">With camera and camper in tow, filmmaker Bonnie Hawthorne left her urban California comforts in the rearview mirror to learn from the Vetters\u2014and others in their Nebraska region\u2014about what\u2019s really going on in the Corn Belt. Her debut feature documentary shares the struggles the Vetters face as \u201cBig Ag\u201d encroaches. Informative yet entertaining, the film features the self-sustaining, self-renewing farm-management experiment Donald and David Vetter created back in the 1970s. As the Vetters try to stay one step ahead of changing weather patterns, market fluctuations, and the ever-increasing pesticide use around them, their experiment to regenerate soil through organic methods continues.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1739120155432{margin-right: 25px !important;margin-bottom: 75px !important;margin-left: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Our Sponsors<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=&#8221;black&#8221;][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;2902,2899,2888,2901,2930&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_no&#8221; slides_per_view=&#8221;5&#8243; hide_pagination_control=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_separator color=&#8221;black&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1484829791985{margin-bottom: 75px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]<style>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t.shortcode_getbowtied_slider .shortcode-slider-pagination .swiper-pagination-bullet.swiper-pagination-bullet-active:after\n\t\t\t\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tbackground-color: #000000;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"shortcode_getbowtied_slider swiper-container \" style=\"height:300px; width: 100%\" data-autoplay=\"10\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide center-align\" \n\t\t\tstyle=\t\"background: #CCCCCC url() center center no-repeat ;\n\t\t\t\t\t-webkit-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\t-moz-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\t-o-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\tbackground-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\tcolor: #000000\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slider-content\" data-swiper-parallax=\"-50%\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slider-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h1 class=\"primary_font\" style=\"color:#000000; font-size:34px; line-height: 34px\">Dreaming of a Vetter World is the movie to watch if you dream of a better food and farming system.<\/h1>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"primary_font\" style=\"color:#000000; font-size:18px; line-height: 18px\">DAVID BRONNER<br \/>\nCEO Dr. Bronner's<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide center-align\" \n\t\t\tstyle=\t\"background: #CCCCCC url() center center no-repeat ;\n\t\t\t\t\t-webkit-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\t-moz-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\t-o-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\tbackground-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\tcolor: #000000\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slider-content\" data-swiper-parallax=\"-50%\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slider-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h1 class=\"primary_font\" style=\"color:#000000; font-size:34px; line-height: 34px\">An insightful and moving portrait of one of the keystone farms in the organic food movement.<\/h1>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"primary_font\" style=\"color:#000000; font-size:18px; line-height: 18px\">LIZ CARLISLE<br \/>\nAuthor of The Lentil Underground: Renegade Farmers and the Future of Food in America<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide center-align\" \n\t\t\tstyle=\t\"background: #CCCCCC url() center center no-repeat ;\n\t\t\t\t\t-webkit-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\t-moz-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\t-o-background-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\tbackground-size: cover;\n\t\t\t\t\tcolor: #000000\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slider-content\" data-swiper-parallax=\"-50%\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slider-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h1 class=\"primary_font\" style=\"color:#000000; font-size:34px; line-height: 34px\">Here is what happens when vision triumphs over industrial agriculture and industrial movie production.
