Polyfaces Documentary
Campaign<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=654154>

For the last 2 years we have been filming a documentary on the
renowned Polyface
Farm<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=653986>
&
it's broad community of 5000 families
within a 3 hour 'Foodshed' of this unique operation in Swoope, Virginia. We
do not need GM to feed the world and this farm is a
wonderful example of how to do it without the use of harmful chemicals,
while regenerating soils, respecting animals & re-invigorating
local communities.

A Heinz
Award<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=653987>
winner, Joel Salatin was
called the 'most innovative farmer in the world' by Time
Magazine<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=653988>,
stars in the Oscar-nominated Food
Inc.<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=653989>
,
along with Michael Pollan's best selling 'The Omnivore's
Dilemma<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=653990>'
and is seen as an inspiration to many thousands of farmers around the
world.
Joel also recently spoke at the UK Parliament on
regenerative farming practices, and is the author of 8 books about his
techniques.

- Did you know that agriculture is the most damaging industry on the
planet?
- With our food system in desperate need of a reboot,
we wanted to make a film that is a positive example of how you can farm
and feed thousands of people in your community.
- Obesity and diabetes are sky rocketing all around the globe and food
allergies have become the norm.
What if eating fresh, locally farmed produce could not only make us
healthier, reinvigorate landscapes & local economies whilst
helping save the planet?

Please take 9 minutes out of your busy day to watch our trailer,
"Polyfaces<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=653991>
".
We are at the final stages of a 2 year shoot and will then move into the
editing stage. After spending $50,000 of our own funds, we are out of
budget
and now are looking for philanthropic donors to help us to finish this very
important project that could realistically help to
change the face of agriculture for the better, the world over.

When you watch the trailer you will see that we have placed a very high
importance on the wisdom of women,
who are an integral part of the whole Polyface Farms community.

We are pitching this production to the everyday consumer, who we believe
through their daily choices can change the face of agriculture for the
better!

If you would consider passing this on to anyone you feel may be interested
in supporting our project, that would be fabulous.

We are searching for philanthropic sponsorship to complete the documentary
as soon as possible, so if you feel it is within your means to contribute
to the completion of the project, we would be forever grateful.

To complete production of this 70 minute piece will require an
additional $95,000

*"Wow, wow, and wow. As Daniel leaned over my shoulder watching this for
the first time, he said: 'This will go down as the best piece ever done on
us' I agree. It just shows that you have to understand the material and
then you have to put in time. You can't short cut quality; you have
to get familiar with the topic. *

*I can't think of enough superlatives to laud onto this trailer. The story
is compelling; the cinematography is gorgeous; the editing is outrageously
fantastic. How could we ever express our appreciation for how you guys
have captured our ministry? You hit the ball clear out of the park."* Joel
Salatin


*"This could very well be the best piece that has ever been done on us
ever. I mean that. The time lapses, the many interviews, the close-up how
to shots, the kids. It could be the next big one."* Daniel Salatin

*"Polyface is proof that people can sometimes do more for the health of a
place by cultivating it rather than leaving it alone."* Michael
Pollan<http://www.heenandoherty.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?A=Link&VID=14915191&KID=162958&LID=653992>


*"Lisa, I just watched the trailer. I've got one word for you: STUNNING,
SIMPLY STUNNING! OK, that's three words. Really powerful stuff. From a
viscerally emotive standpoint, the best I've seen. This could change
things." *Richard Morris

*"Wow wow wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to be able to
tell folks about this!!!!!!! It's going to change the world!!"* Wendy Gray
