Haven’t seen it but the description sounds inviting: HomeGrown is a film about a family living off the grid in L.A.
It shows how they pulled 6,000 lbs of produce out of a quarter-acre urban lot, according to the producer. Not that a producer would lie, or that it matters how some folks don’t believe in using weight to measure nutrient productivity (perhaps for fear of sparking an arms race with zucchini just to get the ratings up). It still sounds like a cool movie. Screening at the Vancouver International Film Festival Oct 5, 7 and 8 (check the VIFF schedule for details).
More about the film here. Check out the Little Homestead in the City blog.
