Entry#7 The past and future farming

          The documentary Fresh was very interesting to me because it was all about farming and how it brings the goodness to America and how it brings fresh ingredients to families plates to make  happy families. The video was telling us how original farming is turning into dust by chemical agriculture and pollution of big business. There are people that just want money instead of good quality food which brings so many diseases into our homes and in our children.


    Joel Salatin told us how invested he was with his herd how he was proud to make such good products and have everybody strong and healthy from his hearty and healthy products. He tells how his animal eats fresh food instead of steroids and other unnatural stuff that any other fake farmers feed their products. Everything in the three acre farm is done beautifully and naturally, Salatin tells the audience that he wants to leave the next generation the animals in better shape that it was.
       The audience for the documentary are consumers who by products like meat and vegetables from big supermarkets that sell steroid produce for cheap. The farmers want to make the consumers understand that the cheap produce they buy for their families is not healthy and causes e coli, birth defects, nutrition deficiency and obesity. It does not exactly causes obesity but it blocks metabolism so the fat stacks up inside the body causing obesity.

   

  This film does matter because the farmers in the film are telling parents and others who care about the healthy produce then the chemical agriculture food that is on every bodies plates. The farmers are telling the audience to stop buying big business produce when they dont take the time and effort in the foods they sell. The farmers wants consumers to take action and stat farming their own food with natural compost and good ole manure. Instead of the chemical pesticides that marks today's produce.The message that was in the documentary was that farmers want to help bring obesity down have more healthy kids that can bring the next generation the same farming skills that was taught to them.
