Meet Farmer John, whose inspirational story of revolutionizing his family farm and redeeming his own life has won accolades and awards at film festivals around the world. “3.5 out of 4 Stars,” said Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times. “A loving, moving, inspiring, quirky documentary.” “...an unflinching account of what farming takes—and, more important, what it gives back,” said Jeannette Catsoulis of The New York Times.
The documentary will be shown on Tuesday, Nov. 11, at 7 p.m. at Kihei Charter School, 300 Ohukai Street, Suite 213 in Kihei. (Take Pi‘ilani Highway to Ohukai Road, take the second right after Tesoro and drive to the back buildings of industrial park, next to Ernie’s Auto Shop.)
Admission is free. Light refreshments will be available. For more information, call 572-1865 or visit www.hawaiiseed.org.
