The Beals Memorial Library will kick off its DOC & TALK, documentary film and discussion series, with a screening of "The Biggest Little Farm" on Thursday, Sept. 19 at 6 p.m. A discussion of farm life and land conservation with special guests Livvy and Chuck Tarleton (above) of Sunset View Farm in Winchendon will follow the film. The documentary follows a couple through their successes and failures as they work to develop a sustainable farm on 200 acres outside of Los Angeles. Over the years, the desolate land they purchased is transformed into a thriving farm. Film critic Sandie Angulo Chen says that “this powerful, deeply personal documentary is both a memoir and an exploration of the Chesters' quest to make their dream of living on a fully sustainable farm come true”. The Beals Memorial Library is located at 50 Pleasant St., Winchendon. Call 978-297-0300 for more information.
