The Greenhorns is a film about farmers, specifically young revolutionaries who share their stories of farming communities they have kick started.
Their voices express the case for agriculture in America, its spirit, its practices, its needs
…after all we all eat, and as poet Wendell Berry puts it, “eating is an agricultural act.”

Sheet Mulching Project
FREE FOOD AND SOIL! Join us behind Science Center to prepare the soil for Principia’s first permaculture project! Our goal is to eventually make produce from Principia’s own land available to the community, and the first step is to prepare the soil. We’ll be laying down layers of various mulches and we’ll need every hand on deck. Come by whenever you’re available to get your hands dirty, even if only for a short time.
Come anytime from 12:00-5:30 pm to help sheet mulch.
At 5:30 pm, enjoy a fresh, organic, vegan dinner prepared by The Kitchen, a new student cooking club.
Throughout the afternoon, hear live music from several student musicians and groups. We hope to see you there!
Sustainability Meetings:
Every Monday at 1:20pm in room 207 in Science Center
