THIS SHOW IS SOLD OUT

Followed by a Q&A with Noli Taylor and Andrew Woodruff of Island Grown Initiative and Whippoorwill Farm

COMMON GROUND, which features appearances and narration by Laura Dern, Jason Momoa, Rosario Dawson, Ian Somerhalder and Woody Harrelson, is the highly anticipated follow up film to KISS THE GROUND, also directed by Rebecca and Josh Tickell, which is narrated by Woody Harrelson and won over 75 major film festival awards before being seen by over 100 million viewers on major streaming platforms globally.

COMMON GROUND is the hopeful and uplifting story of the pioneers of the “Regenerative Movement” who produce tremendous quantities of nutritionally dense food and are working to balance the climate – all while bringing our entire ecosystem back to life. The film explores how Americans from different walks of life, different political backgrounds and different parts of the country share one thing in common – the very soil beneath their feet. The film investigates the power of “regenerative” farming systems – from large to small scale farmers who are the champions of soil health as the key to unlocking more (and healthier) food to feed America and the world.

Andrew Woodruff has been farming on Martha’s Vineyard for over 40 years.  He is the owner of Whippoorwill Farm in West Tisbury and has served as the Regenerative Farming Consultant for Island Grown Initiative for five years.
