Using the same source video footage, they created 6 different videos on themes ranging from the difference between organic and conventional farming, buying local vs. food flow in from all over the world, and how the food we produce and distribute effects our environment. The kids, as well as Mr. Flickinger and Mr. Rhys were strongly affected by what they found out through the process.
