Joe Picard: Man of the Land

Directed by Susan Bettmann

This film is about the work of Joe Picard caring for the land in the Vermont town, Middlesex, where he was raised. Plowing snow, haying, cutting firewood and more, Joe's knowledge of tending the land throughout the seasons represents an intimacy with nature that, in our contemporary computer age, is fast dying out. His work ethic is informed by his Native American and French Canadian heritage.
