Film Synopsis
Kim Alexander lives as close to the city as you can get and still be country. The furthest an egg travels from his farm is 30 miles, a
distance unheard of in our global food economy. Though a staple in American diets, the origins of our eggs can be a mystery.

Alexander Family Farm 
I so enjoyed seeing this documentary. My family and I are originally from East Texas. We now live in rural Arkansas and are trying to get back to nature and the way our Lord meant for us to live. Thank you for a documentary that gives us hope and encouragement.
I am so enthused to have “found” your website and viewed this documentary. We, too, are trying to make our way back into a simpler, more natural lifestyle. This documentary has been so encouraging. Would the Alexander Family Farm process broilers that we would raise? If so, can you email me with the details. Thank you very much.
Wonderful Video looking forward to trying your broilers soon. Love Joel Salatin Pasture Poultry method
