SYNOPSIS
Six Inches of Soil is a British independent full feature documentary shining a spotlight on soil health and

regenerative farming. It tells the inspiring story of young British farmers standing up against the

industrial food system and transforming the way they produce food - to heal the soil, our health and

provide for local communities. The aims of the film are to sound the alarm on a broken system, but to

also give hope that there is a way to fix it; to inspire farmers to adopt agroecological and regenerative

farming practices; and to encourage consumers, food corporations and policymakers to support their

efforts.

Half the food we eat in the UK is produced by about 180,000 farmers, who manage 70% of our land.

Current “industrial” mainstream farming practices significantly contribute to soil degradation,

biodiversity loss and climate change. Regenerative farming practices, (within an agroecological system)

promote healthier soils, provide healthier, affordable food, restore biodiversity and sequester carbon.

Six Inches of Soil is a story of three new farmers on the first year of their regenerative journey to heal the

soil and help transform the food system - 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 cattle in Cornwall.

As the trio of young farmers strive to adopt regenerative practices and create viable businesses, they

meet seasoned mentors - John Pawsey in Suffolk, Nic Renison in Cumbria and Marina O’Connell in Devon

- who help them on their journey.

They are joined by other experts - Henry Dimbleby, Ian Wilkinson, Mike Berners-Lee, Vicki Hird, Dee

Woods, Tim Lang, Hannah Jones, Satish Kumar, Nicole Masters, Tom Pearson - providing wisdom and

solutions from a growing movement of people who are dedicated to changing the trajectory for food,

farming and the planet.
