This is a short 16mm film showing the 2026 root harvest at Wood Thrush Farms in Gardiner, NY. It was filmed using a spring driven Victor 16mm camera from the 1950s, developed in a plastic bucket, and scanned using a converted projector.

Like filmmaking, agriculture is an interplay between logistical ends and creative means. You put the film into the ground and it will become a beautiful 6lbs artesia in about 50 days, ready to develop.
