Celebrate Thanksgiving with The Bullish Farmer
This Thanksgiving, tune in for a special presentation of the award-winning documentary The Bullish Farmer at 3 PM ET on Documentary Showcase. The film chronicles the inspiring journey of John "John Boy" Ubaldo, who traded his Wall Street career for the life of a small family farmer. Through his experiences, the documentary explores the vital differences between locally sourced, sustainably grown foods and mass-produced products that often rely on harmful chemicals and pesticides.
As viewers prepare to gather with family and friends, the film emphasizes the importance of being mindful of what we eat and where our food comes from. Director Ken Marsolais shares his insights, stating, "Thanksgiving is a time for food, family, friends, love, and blessings. It’s critical that the food we consume is clean and healthy."
For John Boy, Thanksgiving embodies a spirit of gratitude and inclusiveness, with an open-door policy for friends and family, expressing, "We are grateful for what we have and the sustenance we’re able to provide." He emphasizes making conscious choices about food, asserting, "You don’t need to indulge in unhealthy options when there are so many delicious alternatives available.”
The film has captivated audiences worldwide and sparked a dialogue about the significance of local farmers and organic produce. The rise of farmers' markets and a new generation of young farmers inspires both the director and the protagonist. "It’s encouraging to see so many passionate young individuals stepping into farming, aiming to promote healthier lifestyles," remarks Marsolais.
Ubaldo shares his excitement about the growing movement for clean, sustainable food, stating, "It’s heartening to see that we have a supportive community and that we can help people live healthier lives through our work. Many others like me are committed to this cause, striving every day to make clean food the norm."
