Christian Elwell, co-founder of South River Miso Co, has been growing heirloom rice for over 30 years in his backyard behind the miso production facility. The flooded paddy, which is 35 feet in diameter, yields about 100 pounds of organically grown, short grain brown rice each year. He delights in sharing this with friends and family.

Christian will be featured in a film currently in production under a project called The Spirit of Rice sponsored by Planetary Health, a nonprofit educational organization.

To find out more about the film and see how you can support this project we invite you to visit our Gofundme.
