Seasons
of Change on Henry’s Farm: Surrounded
by GMO-heavy industrial farms in Central Illinois, for a quarter-century Henry
Brockman has successfully operated a small family vegetable farm based on
principles of organic cultivation and biodiversity. But farming takes a toll on
his aging body and Henry dreams of scaling back. While his former apprentices
run the farm, Henry spends a "fallow year" with his wife Hiroko in
Japan. But things don't turn out as planned, and Henry must grapple with the
future of farming in a changing climate on personal, generational, and global
levels.
