IBJ.com (Indianapolis Business Journal) review

Recommended:
“HomeGrown.” A divorced father and his three grown children manage to create three tons of produce every year from only 1/5 of an acre of land near a busy interstate exchange in Pasadena, Calif. The Dervaes family proves eccentric–-but likable–-as they discuss how they reduce their “eco-footprint” by their choices of energy sources, such as solar panels and biodiesel made from used vegetable oil from restaurants. May inspire viewers to buy non-electric mixers from an Amish catalog.—Rebecca Berfanger, special to IBJ
