"Changing times calls for changing lifestyles." says Brian Kerkvliet. "So we put more energy into the land? The more you get your fingers in the soil, the more endorphins rush through your head. You get excited by all of that." 

Using permaculture and biodynamic practices, Brian's family is endlessly experimenting and innovating to find what works. His wife Alexandra and daughter Rosalie introduce us to the goats, pigs, and cows who are essential players in their farm's web of life.
