The East Central Chapter invites all to attend their annual meeting! Following appetizers and some business, we will enjoy a screening of “Roots So Deep (You Can See the Devil Down There). You don’t have to be a chapter member to join us. Come, meet members and learn about SFA while enjoying the screening of Roots So Deep.

“Roots So Deep” is a 4-part documentary series all about inventive farmers and maverick scientists building a path to solving climate change with hooves, heart and soil. It is guided by director and wrangler of scientists, Peter Byck, as he meets farmers on both sides of the fence – the folks practicing an adaptive way to graze, and their neighbors set in their family’s generations-old method of doing things. Byck’s team of outcast scientists are measuring what’s happening on both sides of the fences – exploring if this adaptive grazing could help slow down climate change. (https://rootssodeep.org/info)
