A year in the life of Brookford Farm June 19th

Dig In: Real Food Solutions invites you to their movie night on Friday, June 19th to see the documentary, Brookford Almanac at Blue Moon Evolution restaurant, 8 Clifford Street, Exeter, NH (2nd floor).

Filmmaker Cozette Russell tells the story of Luke and Catarina Mahoney and their lively farm apprentices who run Brookford Farm in Rollinsford, New Hampshire.

Luke and Catarina are first-generation farmers. They came to farming through their desire for a connection to the land, not from their family’s expectations. The Mahoneys have embraced the rewards and frustrations of a life centered on the small-scale production of local food. But without inherited land, a major obstacle for first-generation farmers, they must lease their farm with little security for the future.

Cozette Russell is a documentary filmmaker whose work explores the relationship between people and land. She studied filmmaking at Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio, and received her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in film, video & new media. She is currently the Program Coordinator at The Film Study Center at Harvard University and she lives with her husband and creative partner Julian Russell in Lee, New Hampshire.

Join us for a reception before at 6:15 to learn about Dig In’s Summer program, which includes field trips to meet local farmers, fisherman, local brewers and wine makers! It starts June 24th.
