See How One Family Raises 6,000 pounds of Food and 350 Veggie Varieties on One-Tenth of an Acre

Check out this Green Screen Documentary

If you want to look at your garden and feel like an underachiever, check out the upcoming documentary, HomeGrown about the Dervaes family in Pasadena, CA. The Dervaeses run an organic farm and are able to produce 6,000 pounds of food, more than 350 different types of veggies, herbs, berries, and fruits on just 3,900 square feet, or less than one-tenth of an acre. This year they're hoping to increase that yield to 10,000 pounds.

As The Ethicurean reported, HomeGrown is screening at Lincoln Center in New York City on November 3 as part of the Green Screens series. Or, if you’re in St. Louis, check out the film at the St. Louis International Film Festival on November 16.
