The film begins with St. Lucia's historical evolution from a battleground between the French and English to a vibrant Caribbean nation. It traces the island’s journey from indigenous roots through European colonization and slavery, highlighting the rise and fall of its agricultural industries—from cocoa and coffee to the banana boom and subsequent decline due to global trade policies.

Shifting to the present, the film focuses on Helen’s Daughters, an organization led by Keithlin Caroo-Afrifa, empowering women farmers across the Caribbean. Through the stories of resilient FarmHers like Helena, Patricia, and “Mama Helen,” the film showcases their innovative contributions and the organization’s impact, including FarmHers markets and rural training programs.

The narrative transitions to Helen’s Daughters’ efforts in St. Lucia, where they partner with WhyFarm and IICA (Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture) to engage local school students in agriculture and food security. Their work extends to a new shade house project in St. Kitts & Nevis.

The film encapsulates Helen’s Daughters’ journey from advocacy to action, underscoring their transformative role in agriculture and their commitment to shaping a sustainable future for the Caribbean.
