Roots So Deep — Documentary Screening and Q&A Bendigo Feb 23 1-4pm

SPECIAL "ROOTS SO DEEP" OFFER for GROW ticketholders

Add a Sunday screening ticket to your GROW ticket for just $10

After presenting at GROW Festival on February 22, headline speaker Peter Byck will host an intimate screening of his new docuseries "Roots So Deep", followed by a Q&A.

Screening is at: La Trobe Art Institute, 121 View St Bendigo, February 23, 1pm-4pm

In “Roots So Deep”, Peter Byck meets farmers on both sides of the fence – the folks practicing an adaptive way to graze, and their neighbours set in their family’s generations-old method of doing things. Peter’s team of outcast scientists are measuring what’s happening in the soil and on their farms to understand if using adaptive grazing could help slow down climate change.

Special GROW PLUS SCREENING tickets are strictly limited and available until sold out.

Presented by the Healthy Landscapes project, with GROW Festival
