Homestead

Homestead

I did an 8 month documentary project on a small organic farm just outside of the city. Sparrows Nest Organics is run by a couple who have a vision in farming, where food is grown without chemicals and provided to the local community. Their small-scale, organic farming offers an alternative to the large-scale, cash crop farming that dominates the province of Alberta.

This is a shot of a homestead that sits eerily on in the middle of the farm. A flattened down grass road leads up to this decaying old structure as it's now only used to store materials from farming -a common practice in Alberta.
