June 1, 2004: So you want to be a farmer, do you? It’s a good bet, then, that a look at the sobering and delightful video You want to do what? Farming! will motivate you to get moving on your dream, have you thinking twice, or perhaps a little bit of both.

Featuring NewFarm.org writers and 20-year CSA veterans George and Melanie Devault, as well as four other farmers and farming couples around Pennsylvania, this 15-minute video offers real advice and shares some of the real rewards and challenges of running a small farm.

The film was the brainchild of videographer, farmer, and PASA board member Brian Moyer. It premiered at the 13th Annual PASA (Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture) Conference last winter to laughter, some tears, and overall rave reviews.
