Assignment: I originally produced this piece at the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies in Portland, Maine, and it was later licensed by The Nature Conservancy’s podcast. I spent nearly three months documenting Diana George Chapin and her family at the Heirloom Garden of Maine in Montville. At the time, the family was fighting to keep their town free of GMOs. Diana recently wrote me to let me know they won the fight in their town, and are now working on other towns in the area. She and her family are lovely people. To find out how you can support Diana and her garden, visit her Web site.
