GALLOWAY, N.J. — On Sept. 25, 2026, Jo Kelly—a third-year Communications major—premiered their documentary Galloway Green Market: Making South Jersey Sustainable in collaboration with Go Green Galloway and AC Film Club.

The film focuses on uplifting individuals to do more for their environment, as well as taking personal accounts from various local farmers and vendors to share the importance of supporting local businesses, especially those of agricultural nature.

The documentary shares information on the Galloway Green Market, sustainability and environmental conservation. The Galloway Green Market is a summer, plastic-free, marketplace where local farmers, vendors and artists sell various products, often including fresh produce and other goods; 2026 marked the Galloway Green Market’s 10th anniversary. Many interviews were taken during the filming of the documentary, including accounts from members of Go Green Galloway, students who work on the Stockton Sustainability Farm, and local farmers and vendors. They all shared their personal experiences regarding sustainability while explaining the importance of various sustainable practices.

After viewing the documentary, several attendees were asked for their opinions, Meredith Westfall—a second-year student—said, “Jo’s documentary presented a much more hopeful and joy-oriented perspective on sustainability; it reminded me that there is more that I can do in my community, whether it is actively participating in organizations or sharing information about the ways for others to help.”

Colleen Loughlin—a member of the Go Green Galloway committee—said,“[Jo] did an incredible job and [they] said it was their first documentary being made, Jo was always there every Thursday for many hours with [their] friends and the crew and they walked around to all the vendors and bought things and had fun. We are very impressed with Stockton and Jo.”

The documentary can be viewed on the Go Green Galloway YouTube channel. For more information about Go Green Galloway, visit GoGreenGalloway.org
