Review: Common Ground – Chicago Reader
The Award-Winning Documentary sequel, “Common Ground,” by Josh Tickell and Rebecca Harrell Tickell, advocates for regenerative agriculture, a practice rooted in Indigenous traditions. This approach calls for halting the use of chemicals, tilling, and initiating planned grazing and planting diverse cover crops. The film features farmer Gabe Brown who champions regenerative agriculture, contrasting his lush acreage with his neighbor’s barren land. The documentary argues traditional farming methods contribute to soil degradation, disrupting climate balance and food production. “Common Ground” also offers success stories of increased crop yields and profits through regenerative techniques.
