Little City Gardens

During Pride weekend in June, I saw a really fantastic documentary by one-time Bay Area farmer Jonah Mossberg called Out Here which features interviews and perspectives from a handful of queer farmers across the US. It was so incredibly inspiring. The interviews — mostly a collection of thoughts about farming, identity, community, family, rural and urban living from an often underrepresented queer perspective — were refreshing and wise and honest and endearing. It was inspiring to hear farmers from across the country describe what farming means to them, what it means within various communities, and how different identities (farmer, queer, activist) can intersect.

I am so glad this film was made and I highly recommend it. If it’s playing near you, don’t miss it, and if it’s not playing near you, you might get in touch with the filmmakers to see about organizing a screening.
