STORYTELLING
Films usually need a strong story to keep people interested. Right now I just have a subject (the farm). Help me tell the farm's story! Think beginning, middle, end. Or the hero's journey (protagonist wants something but has to overcome obstacles to achieve it).
I am starting as an outsider. As someone who may be more familiar with the farm, what story should I be telling?
Your answer
Are there any specific individuals (you or someone else) that would make great characters for this film (they have special connections or experiences with the farm)?
Your answer
Are you interested in being a contributor? If you would just like to share video/photos/audio of the farm, please add them here. If you are interested in being a more active participant in the filmmaking process, please indicate your interests below (check as many as you like).
INTERVIEWEES
I plan to conduct several interviews. I have a few obvious people in mind but there are probably many more with great stories to share. Let me know a little more about you if you are interested in being interviewed.

MENTAL HEALTH
Mental health is an important topic to me. I plan to address many social and environmental challenges that we face as a society and the ways community farms can help provide tools/solutions for them. Only provide responses if you are comfortable doing so. Any information provided here or during an interview will only be used in the film after contributors have given consent upon seeing the final/edited versions of their content. You will have the ability to withdraw consent at any point during filming or production prior to the film's release.
