A film by Louis De Jaeger & Arne Focketyn – US/Spain/Brazil/Belgium – 2025 – 80 min
What if the future of our food literally grows on trees? Eat More Trees takes you from the Amazon rainforest to Europe and the US, and follows pioneers who are rethinking agriculture through soil care and agroforestry. Despite the major challenges, these pioneers are building resilient ecosystems through the planting of trees, shrubs and crops. We see how they restore soils, enhance biodiversity and produce nutritious food at the same time. Their stories show that agriculture no longer has to stand in opposition to nature, but can simply work together with it.
An accessible and visually strong documentary that shows hopeful alternatives to our food system. Ideal for a broad audience; a post-screening discussion helps to further explore the possibilities and nuances of agroforestry and regenerative agriculture.
Post-screening discussion and explanation of the operation of De Groene Cirkel.
