Free and open to the public.

Join us alongside filmmaker Graham Meriwether for an evening of discovery and inspiration at the premiere of Farmers for America, a new and unique documentary chronicling the challenges being faced by America’s next generation of farmers. Narrated by Mike Rowe.

About the film:
We’re facing a unique moment in America’s agricultural history. The average age of the U.S. farmer is now 60 and the challenges facing young farmers have never been greater. It’s a time of upheaval, risk…and extraordinary opportunity. This film advocates the new generation of young people to stepping forward and the challenges they’re facing.
