What critics have said about this film:
“This is a loving, moving, inspiring, quirky documentary that was made while the lives it records were being lived” -Chicago Sun-Times
“Offers one man’s extraordinary life as a gateway to a larger history of tragedy and transition. It’s an unflinching account of what farming takes — and, more important, what it gives back” -The New York Times
Though its title suggests an exposé on Dodger Dogs, the movie is the moving, inspirational account of John Peterson’s discovery of an almost divine calling in the land beneath his feet.” -Los Angeles Times
“We’ve seen documentaries with more daring themes, greater drama, sharper craft and timelier subject matter. But few have been as affecting as The Real Dirt on Farmer John” -Portland Oregonian

I recently moved back to Calgary after fifteen years away and am very excited to see what is going on here in the local food community. I will definitely be coming to this event and to the market this summer. I think the posters look really great as well and find the blog very well put together and informative in general. I appreciate that you have put this together!
