Farm Lab – Documentary Trilogy
In the Spring of 2023, community volunteers came together to document the rise of the Farm Lab through a “community participatory film production”. Community members were invited to participate in documenting our project through stories, photos, videos, music and art. Over twenty community members contributed archival footage, creative content, interviews, etc., and a skilled crew of community volunteers, students and alumni edited it together to create the following trilogy: Spring, Summer and Fall/Winter. Episodes range in length from 14 minutes to 18 minutes and include participant interviews, wildlife/garden photography and original music. The films give a glimpse into the Farm Lab during our first season from a variety of perspectives.
