The Biggest Little Farm
Preceded by short film Half a Chicken
When John and Molly Chester’s dog refuses to stop barking at the neighbors, they decide to uproot their lives in Santa Monica and follow a long-time dream to start a farm. The Chesters reclaim depleted land to found the idyllic Apricot Lane Farm an hour outside of the city, documenting their successes and failures for over eight years. Working to establish a traditional, self-sustaining biodynamic farm, they face challenges from hungry coyotes to insects to wildfires. Throughout their journey, the Chesters remain committed to creating an ecosystem in perfect harmony, working in coordination with plants and animals alike to create a thriving farm.
