Cities can grow their own food. A documentary shows how, and who is doing it.
Urban farming is one of the most rapidly expanding edges of the food system. A documentary about urban agriculture captures both the ecological story and the community justice story simultaneously.
We produce urban farming documentary films for community garden organizations, rooftop farm companies, urban vertical farming operations, city food policy programs, and individuals building food production systems within urban environments. Urban agriculture filmmaking has a specific visual language — the contrast between the built environment and the growing things within it, the hands of urban farmers who have adapted practices developed in rural contexts to city spaces, and the community relationships that often form around shared growing spaces. We bring that language to every urban farm documentary.
Urban farming documentaries serve food justice organization fundraising, city and county food policy program documentation, foundation grant applications, academic research documentation, and media coverage in food systems and urban design publications. For urban farming operations whose products are sold at local markets or through CSA programs, the community food system story serves as compelling retail marketing alongside the documentary.

Through the people — the neighbors who find connection at the garden, the youth participants in educational programs, the longtime residents who remember when the lot was vacant. Urban farming is inherently a community story, and the documentary should be built around the community as much as the agriculture.
Yes. Multi-site urban farming documentaries build a compelling picture of a movement rather than a single operation. We design multi-location production schedules to capture the diversity of approaches and communities involved.
When they're central to the operation's mission, yes. Urban farms are often located in food-insecure neighborhoods precisely because of the food access mission. A documentary that honors that mission — the specific community food security gap the operation is addressing — is more compelling and fundable than a purely agricultural story.
A framework for land-based enterprises that need their story to travel — across consumers, investors, and community audiences, from a single film strategy.
