Seeding a Dream (2014)

A famously fertile piece of land that had produced food for centuries-and once boasted its own store-had been protected with an agricultural easement, ensuring that it could never be developed into house lots; but there was no guarantee that it would ever be actively farmed again. With the financial help of the landowner, young farmers Ben and Taryn Marcus revitalize the farm and transform the store into a thriving community food hub; yet they live with little security to show for all their toil. Seeding a Dream helps us realize the value that young farmers bring to our communities and better understand the challenges these farmers face.
