A Farmer’s Road

A Farmer’s Road tells the story of how two Ph.D. soil scientists traded the security of academic tenure for the relentless challenges and economic uncertainly of operating a Grade A goat dairy and farmstead creamery in central Illinois. Surrounded by commodity-based agri-business, they strive to embody the core principles of sustainability, showcasing artisan goat milk products during slow-food dinners on the farm. Their mission to educate the public about locally sourced small-farm diversity is changing the American food system one meal at a time. ©2016. Running time is 75 minutes.
