Five Farms: Stories from American Farm Families - Mon, April 27, 2009

Center for Documentary Studies
Once, most Americans were farmers. Now, only about one in a hundred works the land. While providing our food, farmers and ranchers are the stewards of almost half of the nation's land - a billion acres. Five Farms, presented as a multimedia exhibition, puts a personal face on the lives and livelihoods of farmers across the country. Through their voices we learn what it takes to farm and produce the food that we count on when we go to the market. The farming families who are profiled in this project - they live in Massachusetts, North Carolina, Iowa, Arizona, and California - share their experiences in the audio stories and pictures in this exhibition; in a series of five one-hour radio documentaries on public radio stations nationwide (starting in May 2009, check local listings); in a series of radio features on National Public Radio's "All Things Considered", and on a multimedia website (www.fivefarms.org).
