Feel good and inspirational. Wonderful real life example of how to take care of the soil we all depend on...

This story is feel good and inspirational. It's an eyeopener to anyone who doubts that nature itself cant provide us with all it's richness by itself. IT CAN !

This movie is such a wonderfully, pleasant way to watch a real life example of how an American couple (living in the city) managed to start and run a desolate, abondonded farm succesfully WITHOUT any use of pesticides. The many intelligent ways in which this couple treated their farm with care are simply to die for.

Dog and animal lovers (in general) will surely LOVe this movie as well, because animals ( of every kind ) are such an important part of a thriving nature and watching those many animals help nature thrive is wonderful and often even quite miraculously witty.

Such a terrific feel good film about all the wonders of "simply" farming the way nature has intended to... Recommended for all ages, family and friends!

Oddly relaxing....seriously.

My daughter saw this film at the Philadelphia Film Festival and has been telling me for months that I MUST see "The Biggest Little Farm". Well, the documentary somehow got excellent distribution and I had a chance to see it in the theater just before its release to DVD (which is later this week).

The film is about an unusual farm near Los Angeles. What makes it unusual (apart from being so close to LA) is that instead of a monoculture, the farm takes a more holistic approach to farming. So, instead of one huge crop of almonds or citrus (pretty typical of this area),the farm grows many, many different things and tries to do them using older techniques which are better for the environment. The story takes place over a period of about 8-9 years.

While on the surface this story sounds VERY dull, it's amazing that it isn't. The filmmakers were able to tell a captivating story and did it very well for many reasons. Humanizing the story helped but what really helped was the lovely cinematography and music....and it helped to make the movie very relaxing and sweet. I highly recommend this film.

How everybody should live.

The Biggest Little Farm is a well made documentary that makes you dream about living differently, not depending too much on others, just letting nature doing her thing. The biodiversity is the most interesting aspect of this documentary. It shows how everything is connected and that for every problem there is a self regulated solution. John and Molly Chester show us everything, from the early start of their project to the amazing results they get. It's clear that in order to save our planet, if that is even still possible, biodiversity is the answer, so the exact opposite of what we are actually doing now. The cinematography is stunning, the wildlife scenes are amazing, much better than I thought it would be. Overal, if you're thinking about changing your eating habits, or if you're just interested in nature and gardening, then this documentary is a mandatory watch.
