April 14: Earth Cinema, 7:00pm in the Hiett Library. This month's "green documentary" is "The Real Dirt on Farmer John."

The film covers the life of John Peterson, a farmer, artist, and progressive thinker, as seen through family home movies, photographs, film, and video. In the late 1960s, John turned his traditional family farm into an experiment of art and agriculture, making it a haven for hippies, radicals, and artists. In the late 1980s, his local community ostracizes him as a devil worshipper/drug dealer, and the farm debt crisis of the time brings about the tragic collapse of his farm. Defying all odds, John eventually farms again and creates a revolutionary extended village where people and art thrive alongside agriculture.
