Six Inches of Soil follows the inspiring story of British farmers standing up against the industrial food system and transforming the way they produce food – to heal the soil, benefit our health and provide for local communities.

The film follows the highs and lows of three new farmers on their regenerative journey: Anna
Jackson, a Lincolnshire 11th generation arable and sheep farmer; Adrienne Gordon, a Cambridgeshire small-scale vegetable farmer; and Ben Thomas, who rears pasture fed beef livestock in Cornwall.

As the trio of young farmers strive to adopt regenerative practices and create viable businesses, they meet seasoned mentors who help them on their journey. They are joined by other experts providing wisdom and solutions from a growing movement of people who are dedicated to changing the trajectory for food, farming and the planet.

 

Following the film screening, there will be Q&A panel with:

  • Jake Freestone, Former Soil farmer of the Year
  • Emma Hamer, NFU County Adviser Worcestershire
  • James Warne, Soil First Farming
  • Frankie Colwall, Hazelhurst Farm
  • Caroline Corsie, Worcestershire Wildlife Trust
  • Michelle Boliver

Moderating the panel will be author and BBC sports commentator Pat Murphy.
