February Films of Earth Love in Four Elements: EARTH: "The Biggest Little Farm"

In this four-part series that will circulate the library's three branches on Tuesday afternoons in February, each film will focus on a different one of the four elements of nature. A brief discussion will follow each film. The documentary The Biggest Little Farm will be the feature for the theme of earth. (92 minutes) (2019)

Filmmaker and novice farmer John Chester chronicles the eight-year quest he and Molly Chester went on when they traded city living for 200 acres of barren farmland in the foothills of Ventura County and a dream to harvest in harmony with nature in this heartwarming film. Through dogged perseverance and embracing the opportunity provided by nature's conflicts, the Chester's unlock and uncover a biodiverse design for living that exists far beyond their farm, its seasons, and our wildest imagination.
