Jacky and Dora King's 2nd Hoophouse in Flint, Mich.

In the fall of 2010, between two and three dozen volunteers gathered
at Harvesting Earth Farm to create the site's second hoophouse.
Mid-Michigan Solar was also on the site to donate machinery and
resources to begin the process of installing solar panels that will
also support geothermal heating. Experts were also on the site to
start planning a rain cistern to capture and use rainfall. Dora King
was very excited to see support for the farm. "All of these renewable
energy pieces are coming to the farm was in our original proposal and
it's just something that's thrilling to us that it's finally starting
to come together here at this site." Troy Hale and Geri Alumit Zeldes co-directed and produced the documentary film project.
