3. Activists & Farmers. Growing up in Smithtown, filmmaker Dom Aprile was always fascinated by how the suburban sprawl of Long Island gave way to acres of farmland as you ventured further east. In 2019, he began working on a new documentary, “Farming Long Island,” which will be screened on Tuesday, Dec. 7 at noon as part of the Hamptons Doc Fest at Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor. “All the farmers I spoke to were very sustainability-focused and were truly stewards of the land, consciously putting back into the land through composting, grazing and crop rotations.” (East End Beacon)
