Weekend Documentary! A Farm for the Future and The Worm Guy!

I love this documentary! It always makes me feel better to watch it.
The second one is my other favorite, an episode of "Peak Moment".
When events in the world get especially frightening, I like watching programs like these to give me some hope and an image of how things 'could' be, given the opportunity. Hope you enjoy them!Going out now to plant eggplant seeds in the greenhouse! LOL
