This is a well produced video about a young first-generation farm couple in Arizona that talks about the beginning farmer experience.

For a young couple from Tucson, Arizona deciding to make a career change and become farmers was something unexpected. With absolutely no background in agriculture, they’ve taken on planting 62 hundred pecan trees and 5 varieties of grapes. They have two things in mind – growing local and reducing the country’s carbon footprints.
