LOS ANGELES — While Shannon Green’s career in L.A. has taken her a long way from the Oakwood farm where she grew up, she says she sees similar values in both places: an immense love of nature, storytelling and food that comes from farming.
Green hopes to make that connection evident in her latest effort: the 12-part docuseries “The Biggest Little Farm,” a sequel to the 2018 film of the same name.
Green served as a producer on the series, which she worked on from 2021 to 2024 and which is set to debut Sunday on “The Biggest Little Farm” YouTube channel. Two 30-minute episodes will be available immediately, with the rest released once a week.
The 2003 Oakwood High graduate said this has been her favorite project to date.
“It’s super wholesome and family-friendly,” she said. “I’m just excited for everyone from home to see it.”
The 2018 documentary follows John and Molly Chester and their son as they create a sustainable farm on 200 acres in Moorpark, Calif., about 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles.
