Betting the Farm - Farmers, Perseverance, Dairy, Sustainability
This Documentary presents a poignant depiction of Maine dairy farmers who, in a desperate bid to preserve their farms, establish their own milk company after being dropped by a national milk corporation. Committed to paying sustainable prices for their milk, the farmers' cooperative, MOO Milk, offers a ray of hope for the future of small-scale farming. However, with sluggish sales and accumulating debts, the farmers grapple with the question: Can they endure long enough for their risky venture to yield returns? This verité documentary intimately follows the journeys of three farmers - Aaron Bell, Vaughn Chase, and Richard Lary - and their families, offering a rare and authentic insight into the challenging lives of American farmers on the brink of change.
