Documentary Screening: The Biggest Little Farm

Chappaqua Library & Town of New Castle present:

A free screening of the documentary film The Biggest Little Farm. Before the screening guest speaker Allison Turcan, Founder of D.I.G. Farm in North Salem, and host and producer of the podcast Getting Dirty, will discuss what it takes to be a local farmer.

The Biggest Little Farm chronicles the eight-year quest of John and Molly Chester, as they trade city living for 200 acres of barren farmland, and dream to harvest in harmony with nature. Through various hardships, and a vast learning curve, they embrace opportunities provided by nature’s conflicts. With the help of biodynamic expert Alan York, they uncover a biodiverse design of living that exists beyond the farm.

This screening is co-sponsored by the Town of New Castle, the New Castle Sustainability Advisory Board, the Greeley Sustainability Club, and The Friends of the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center.

The screening and discussion are free and open to the public. For more information go to chappaqualibrary.org or contact the New Castle SAB at sab@mynewcastle.org.
