A rare and insightful film
Back to the Garden is a rare film. None other addresses the back to the earth movement with such honesty, documenting the lure as well as the drawbacks. As a chronicle of flower children growing up, it grants us an even rarer glimpse into where a core of the generation of love landed. And then this film takes us even further, into how the movement has evolved, and ultimately reveals to us the simple hope and humanity found in working for a kinder, more peaceful world. Beliefs developed as youths matured into a continuing commitment to mindfulness in a way we can not only understand, but hopefully recognize some of ourselves within. Back to the Garden is a powerfully gentle film, proving love can be the greatest of denominators among us.

Good but I wanted some different info
The film has a feel good quality to it and it is interesting to see this movement in the modern era documented on film. I wanted to know how these people survived in terms of making money and putting food on the table. I wanted to know how often they took a shower or something resembling one. Having lived in Tonasket for a couple years of my life. I’m a little familiar with the local hippies, at least as they were in 1980 or so. These were people who generally worked in the fruit industry, at least back them, and I suspect a lot of them collected welfare checks too. I heard back in about 1980 that it was in the 70’s when the hippie settlements started in the area. The story went that California news papers in he 70s had articles saying it was cheap and easy to collect welfare in the area. I don’t criticize any of it personally except that earthiness that goes with not showering.

That’s what I saw when I lived there. I did have a friend who was the son of one of these hippy families..He’d always had showers though, even had a car, which few of us teenyboppers had at the time. There was varying degrees of quality of life among the hippys in the area. At the time, I never noticed so much a sense of peace and love in that scene, or any intentional attemp at oneness with the earth. It seemed more to me like people wanting a simple life and living on the cheap. It was kind of like ghetto’s, except they were out in the sticks. Definite poverty and I’m sure some people at times probably froze to death in the winter. In the film we see an upside to things, and these hippies may have no connections to the ones I witnessed in 1980. Bottom line, good film, but I wanted the unromantic details… We do need to save the planet, and there probably is a thing or 2 to learn from the people in the film released in 2009. There’s much more to be learned elsewhere too. Technology used in a positive way can do way more than adopting a primitive lifestyle.

That said, at some point, if we are to save the inhabitability of planet earth,human beings are gonna have to sacrifice some comforts. I believe this true, but nobody wants to hear it.

Since 2009, in Washington state we’ve had devastating wild fires in our state and I’m certain it’s impacted the people in the film.
