GROW! in Missoula, Montana
Lisbeth Dreyer and Christine Anthony in Missoula at Montana Cine Film Fest
Besides being a beautiful place to visit, the Montana CINE Fest offered a wonderful opportunity to view some really inspiring films from all over the world. Another plus was meeting the filmmakers.
Lisbeth produced Fjord, an amazing award winning film which was directed and shot by her husband. Through an agreement struck at the festival, she is also now acting as our agent for GROW! in Europe. We will be representing Fjord and another film, Winter Light in the U.S.

GROW! picked up two awards in Montana:
The FOCUS Award and Best of Category (Food/Agriculture Issues)

Missoula film critic Dave Loos on GROW!
"The obvious risk of a documentary featuring 20 insanely earnest and hard-working young farmers in Georgia is that it had better be really good...It does not disappoint."

Where it all began
At screenings, we are often asked about our inspiration for making GROW!
In 2008, when we decided to explore filmmaking, we made this 13 minute short on a Flip Ultra.
Two years later, armed with a much better camera and lots more skills, we decided to make GROW!
FARM! features 7 of the farmers who are in GROW!

One Year Ago Today...
... we were out filming Little Country Giants bits for the movie and Wes' scenes for the music video with LCG. Time flies.

GROW! Goes to Nashville
We're off to Nashville to help raise money for the Community Food Advocates' Field of Greens Fund.
The fund was started by members of the greater Nashville community who were concerned about the economic impact that the flood of May 2010 had on the sustainable farmers who supply the Nashville area with healthy delicious food. The fund is not limited to disaster relief, it also serves as a source for farmers needs to rebuild, expand and grow.
There will be mingling, snacks, GROW! screening (with intro by the filmmakers).
Following the screening there will be desserts, and a panel discussion with some young local farmers, a chef and the filmmakers.
Its all happening at 6:00 on October 6th.
Suggested donation is $15, (but you could give more!)
