Cheri, former dairy farmer:
You want to protect what you think is right, and this is your way of life, this is what society says you should be doing with the animals that you have in your care...

Jim, former dairy farmer:
I got attached to them a lot. Some we would even name and stuff, and we shouldn't have. They were like our little kids almost.

 Willow Jeane, former beef farmer:
There were times that I was uncomfortable with some of the things we did with the cattle, such as branding the calves. But the funny thing is, after you do it awhile, it's just accepted. It's your job and you adjust to it, and you get hard to it.

Howard, former beef farmer:
It was tough for me to verbalize something that I had locked out of my mind for years and years. I knew, looking at those animals, they knew they were going to die.

Harold, former beef farmer:
It's like you innately know that this is not right, otherwise I wouldn't feel so bad about it, I wouldn't feels so sad.

Jason, animal rescuer:
To most people, they are 29 cents a pound, but to me, that's a sacred life, and that's a friend.

Cayce, humane officer and animal rescuer:
Animals are capable of recognizing us as individuals, and I think the greatest gift we can give to them is to recognize them as individuals.

 

Cheri and Jim today:
We’ve come full circle. We’re getting back to the basics of love and nurturing and the land -- letting the animals share the land with us.

Harold today:
The amount of courage it takes to examine the basic assumptions that you've carried since childhood, and to question those, and then find that there is another way to be in the world, and then to follow that vision, that dream -- it's really a joyous thing, it's going home.
