FSB was proud to sponsor The Eddy Awards at the @criff_01, celebrating Iowa-connected filmmakers. Congrats to all winners of the Gold and Silver Eddy Awards! It was an honor to present the awards and recognize their passion and dedication in creating outstanding films.

Livestock on the Land will be screening on 4/15 @ the CR Independent Film Fest @criff_01. What sets it apart from other docs about regenerative grazing is its focus on people. If we want ag that works for our people, we have to work together to build it. crifm.org
