Review by Andie Karvelis:

Farming has been an integral part of our society for hundreds of years. As the times move forward becoming more technologically advanced, some things are better with traditional methods. Hay Day is a unique documentary about a multi-generational Teton Valley family that uses horse power and antique equipment on their farm.

The interviews with each family member and getting an inside look into the productivity of using traditional farming methods was fascinating. Plus it must make it easier on the environment leaving no carbon footprint. Cinematography was very good and I appreciated the variations of using cell phone footage and camera footage to capture this family at work.

This film is educational and wildly interesting. It definitely makes you stop and think about traditional ways being the better option.
