Which Way, L.A.?
'Occupy the Farm' and the Fight to Grow Food UC Berkeley had plans to transform two acres on the shore of San Francisco Bay from a research farm into a commercial development. Some 200 people had a different idea. They broke the padlock off the gate, planted crops of their own and braved the threat of arrest every day. Todd Darling is the director of the new documentary Occupy the Farm , which is showing around the country — and is scheduled tomorrow for the Royal Theater in West Los Angeles.
