Farming 101
“Farming 101,” is a documentary primarily about the last two dairy farms in Eliot and Kittery, Maine, both farms located on an eight-mile stretch of Route 101. For Johnson, working on his Wilson Road property, farming is in his blood. Fred Schultze was in his thirties when he and his wife bought a farm on Goodwin Road and eventually bought dairy cows. Fluctuating milk prices, uncertain weather conditions, expensive equipment, and a shortage of hired farm workers combine to make dairy farming in Maine a difficult business.
