[Frameworks] Vegetable films?

[lagonaboba]

Another from Frampton, regrettably neither contemporary nor “by frameworkers here” (unless Hollis is here from the Bardo)
Works and Days, 1969, 12:00min.   see FMC

one of Joyce Wieland’s films (some frameworker surely knows which) contains the Beach Boy’s song Vegetable.

ps.  if you accept ethnographic films as “experimental” (and i don’t know why you would but the A-G category excludes some brilliant non-narrative non-feature films)
there are some wonderful films about agriculture by such filmmakers as John Marshall and Robert Gardner.
Gardner and Karl Muller’s Land Divers of Melanesia  concerns a yam harvest.
distributed by DER, which has an entire “Agriculture” section in their index of films.
