I am so thrilled to have this new video project completed! My friend, cinematographer extraordinaire Anton Lorimer, produced this piece for us. He really helped us capture the mission of our small farm... to help people rediscover the simple pleasures that nature provides through a connection with food. I talk about it all the time and sometimes feel like a broken record... but that is our passion. Once you've tasted an heirloom tomato or a peach within a few short hours of when it was harvested... it's hard to go back. You'll find yourself becoming accutely aware of the difference between direct from the farm vs. direct from the shelf. And soon you might find yourself becoming... a foodie!!! Welcome to my world!!
We wanted to make sure our message of supporting small farms didn't get lost in the mix of the fabulous events we've had here. And while the wedding celebrations and private events have gone a long way in keeping our farm self-sustaining and diversified ~ we don't want the essence of this magical place to get lost. These events have brought thousands of people to our small farm over the course of the past 4 years. Our simple message and our presence may not be grand in scale - but it's noble nonetheless. I know we've made a difference to a lot of people who have found their way here. We've received emails and phone calls from guests who have attended wedding events here that have told us they want to do what they can back in their respective communities to support small farms. Whether it's through subscribing to a CSA or visiting their own local Farmer's Markets - it's made a differnce. And that's the end game. In a very low key/grass roots way - we want to do our part to remind people that they can be instrumental in keeping small farms alive!
Bon Appetit!
