100+ GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE ISLE FIND COMMON GROUND

Co-director Josh Tickell and executive producer Ian Somerhalder spreading the hopeful message of Common Ground on ABC Live.

Common Ground screened at the Miracle theater in Washington D.C. on November 13, 14, and 15th to packed audiences and lines around the block to get in.

This event was an exciting culmination of the last two months of our cross-USA roadshow, and an exciting opportunity to bring the film and its message to those in charge of our political system.

Guests included over 100 key staff from the US Senate, Congress, White House, and key offices like the Department of Justice, Department of Interior, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Common Ground is about saving our food systems before it is too late, and spreading the promise of regenerative agriculture. We’re thrilled to see that political faces are open to regenerative agriculture and Common Ground is helping to serve as a driving force for change.

LET’S PRIORITIZE SOIL HEALTH AND FIND COMMON GROUND

Regenerative agriculture isn't just a farming practice; it's a solution that benefits the environment, farmers, and our food. By nurturing healthy soil, regenerative methods help combat climate change, restore ecosystems, and reduce the need for harmful chemicals. As a result, farmers save money while producing more sustainable, nutrient-rich crops. This means healthier food for all of us. Join us in celebrating regenerative agriculture's positive impact on our planet and spread the word to your friends and family!

WHAT’S NEXT? WHERE IS COMMON GROUND HEADED?

We are still booking theaters through the winter and into 2024! We’re excited to continue to partner with local art houses and independent theaters to bring Common Ground to cities around the U.S and Canada, and eventually release the film to the rest of the world. Don’t forget to Request Common Ground at Your Theater if you don’t see your city listed below!
