Save the Farm, Save the Future: Documentary Showing & Panel Discussion

Save the Farm, Save the Future: Documentary Showing & Panel Discussion

We invite you to join us for a showing of this film that was created by Free Range Films in collaboration with Colorado Agrivoltaic Learning Center! Funded in part by the Walton Family Foundation.

Farms are disappearing. Solar energy is rising. Could combining the two help save farmers and the planet? Introducing agrivoltaics.

This film recently won "Best in Fest" at the Colorado Environmental Film Festival and has aired on over 80 PBS stations nationwide!

Farming in America is harder than ever. Drought, extreme weather, rising costs, development pressures, and labor challenges are pushing farmers to their limits. Meanwhile, climate change — the very force behind many of these struggles — is driving a surge in demand for clean energy, transforming farmland into solar fields. Save the Farm, Save the Future follows Colorado farmers and ranchers — from sheep and cattle ranchers to peach growers and small organic farmers — as they explore agrivoltaics, a promising new approach that combines solar power and agriculture on the same land. Can this innovation help save farms while meeting society’s need for renewable energy?

The Colorado Agrivoltaic Learning Center showcases clean energy generation coupled with local food production to educate and inspire our community into taking action to improve land stewardship within solar arrays.
