FARMSTEADERS
Director: Shaena Mallett

Out of the ashes of a once-thriving farm community, a philosophical farmer gives everything he has to resurrect his late grandfather’s land, provide for his growing family, and reimagine a better way to feed people. Clear-eyed and intimate, this moving documentary portrait–set in the verdant foothills of Ohio–is as much a study of place as it is a study of persistence.

FARMSTEADERS premiered at the Athens International Film + Video Festival in 2018 and was broadcast on PBS’ POV in 2019.
