Throughout the movie, I thought it was interesting to see the
attachment between the farmers and their land and animals around their farms.
What stroked me the most in this movie was the relationship between two of the
farmers and their sheep, ducks and chickens, and pigs. The farmers were able to
name the ducks, play with the pigs, and worry about their baby sheep whereas
industrialized farmers would probably not even pay attention to the animals
other than when it is required for their production.

This movie truly puts light on the future of local farming and how industrialized farms can affect them. After watching this documentary, I now have a better understanding of what local farmers endure on a daily basis to produce good products and I am looking at the vegetables I buy more carefully. It is a small thing for us to buy from our local farmers but it is a big change for them to be able to produce and sell more.
