Atina Diffely tells us her story in Turn Here - Sweet Corn. Part organic farming, part being developed off their fifth generation family farm, part remaking a family farm life and part legal thriller as Atina fights Koch Industries Inc.  A "David versus Goliath" battle as Koch Industries declares eminent domain for a crude oil pipeline across the family's farm. "Kale versus Koch." It is  a story about the land and the truths you learn from living and working on the land. Everything we do has consequences. And, it is in part a wonderful love story.
