Nightfall Farm:
A More Than Corn Story
What’s it take to make a living - and a life - farming today? Follow along with husband-and-wife farmers Nate and Liz Brownlee as they work to run Nightfall Farm, a sustainable livestock farm in Crothersville, Indiana.

Although Liz’s parents were ultimately unsuccessful in their farming ventures on the very same land, Nate and Liz believe new methods, hard work, and a good sense of humor will help them reach their goals.
