IT ALL STARTED WITH A DOG...

THE BIGGEST LITTLE FARM chronicles the eight-year quest of John and Molly Chester as they trade city living for 200 acres of barren farmland and a dream to harvest in harmony with nature.

Through dogged perseverance and embracing the opportunity provided by nature's conflicts, the Chester’s unlock and uncover a biodiverse design for living that exists far beyond their farm, its seasons, and our wildest imagination.

Featuring breathtaking cinematography, captivating animals, and an urgent message to heed Mother Nature’s call, THE BIGGEST LITTLE FARM provides us all a vital blueprint for better living and a healthier planet.

Please join us for this special showing. Kid friendly, run-time 90 mins. Come early, 6pm, to avoid concession lines.

Thanks to a Rapid Response Grant from the Owen County Community Foundation, we were able to install an access ramp; our River House is now accessible to all our patrons!

This is just one of many upgrades happening at Owen County SWCD. Thanks to the support of our community and friends, we are able to expand our programing and offerings.

Our next projects: Obtaining funds to replace all the old windows and doors, and removing an interior wall to allow for more instructional space.

$25,000 Building Campaign!
https://bit.ly/OCSWCDFund

So many exciting programs and trainings are happening at Owen County Soil & Water that we’ve nearly outgrown our River House! But, with a little help from our friends, we can upgrade and expand the house, allowing it to grow with us.

Immediate concerns: We need to replace all the old windows and doors, and remove an interior wall to allow for more instructional space. Any remaining building funds will be used for exterior needs.

To contribute, please click on the link below. Thank you so much for supporting us. Together, we can make a difference!
