LEAP OF FAITH: FAST LANE TO FARMSTEAD – Mind-Made Media’s award-winning documentary about two men who left the big city…for 34 goats.

Big business. Fast food. The pace of modern life can be dizzying, and the world just keeps on spinning. What happens if you want to get off? One successful gay couple did just that, trading in long commutes, consumerism, and the urban rat race for a small farmstead and a zero-growth business. Welcome to Pugs Leap Farm.

This refreshing documentary explores the roots of a life-changing decision, an inspiring partnership, and the joys of local living, shedding some light on the industrial food system and illustrating how our food choices really can change our lives. What will you choose?

Mind-Made Media has partnered with the non-profit Farm-to-Consumer Foundation and will donate a dollar to the Foundation for every DVD sold.

Cathy Raymond, Administrator of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund: "This film documents an inspiring example of two people who have made the leap, and offers a great opportunity for anyone who sees it to take a stand, to protect our farmers and our food from government overregulation fueled by corporate interests. We're working hard to keep America's small farmers off the endangered species list; any proceeds we receive from Leap of Faith will go towards ensuring our farmers' survival.”
