Producer Christine Rogers tours rural North Carolina to see how farmers across the state are shifting away from tobacco and growing new crops in hopes of bringing life back to small farms. Rogers highlights how North Carolinians are taking a fresh look at our natural resources to discover new approaches to turn our rural economy's around.

The documentary shows how one company in RTP is finding new ways to use tobacco as a incubator for vaccines and how another organization is helping farmers connect directly to restaurants to bring the freshest food possible to the dinner table
