We are a grassroots community group working to save the Briar East Woods, a 32-acre ancient dune woodland in Hammond, Indiana, from destruction by the city and its Mayor.

The Briar East Woods is a 4,700 year old ancient dune woodland under threat by the city of Hammond, Indiana’s government. This documentary takes a look into the communities’ efforts to save the woods, the inconsistencies in the city government, and highlights the beauty and importance of the land.
