MOVIE - RACHELS FARM (SOLD OUT)
About
In this uplifting documentary, actor-director Rachel Ward sets out to regenerate her northern NSW beef farm, with the help of experts and neighbours.For many years, her Nambucca Valley property was a family retreat, conventionally farmed by Rachel’s neighbor Mick. The 2019 Black Summer fires spared the farm, but the near-miss – and a first grandchild – sets Rachel thinking hard about the future. Mick encourages Rachel to challenge established farming practices, and take on a new approach which starts from the soil up. Its hands-on hard yakka, but she’s determined, and her joy at finding solutions – not to mention dung beetles – is palpable. Rachel’s Farm is about the environmental threats we face, but it’s also the story of one woman’s resolve to tackle them head on, intent on making a difference.
There will be a discussion panel after the screening and a meet & greet with the director Rachel Ward . Doors open 5.30 movie screens at 6.30pm
