The Green Bronx Machine
A brief documentary about the Green Bronx Machine won a top spot in the Real Food Media Contest for 2014. Founded by Steve Ritz, the Green Bronx Machine has also been called the Bronx Miracle. It has been teaching local kids to grow food, re-use resources and recycle their way into new and healthy ways of living; complete with self sustaining local economic engines. The results have been, well, miraculous!
