Discovery Channel Producer Seeks New HomesteadersMy friends, I don't normally push TV, but I'm excited about this one. It's a great opportunity for us to reach and teach! And... These folks have invited Don and I to host and mentor the homesteading families on this show. So, if you apply and are accepted, we'll be coming to visit and advise! I'm not sure where the company is going to find an "American wilderness," but for sure they're looking for newbies. If you're poised to make the great leap, why not give it a try! Here's their ad, followed by the first letter to Don and me.
ARE YOU SELLING, LEAVING THE CITY, AND MOVING YOUR FAMILY TO A HOMESTEAD IN THE AMERICAN WILDERNESS? LEAVING THE DESK JOB TO PURSUE A DREAM OF SELF-SUFFICIENCY IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS? SEEKING A BACK-TO-BASICS LIFESTYLE IN A WILD OR OFF-THE-GRID REGION OF THE STATES?

For further information, please contact James at Ricochet Films on 011 44 207 251 6966 (UK) or e-mail: james.chri...@ricochet.co.ukDear Carla and Don,
Ricochet Films are the producers of the successful ABC series Super Nanny. We’re now making a new documentary series for Discovery US, which will follow American families as they set up a new life on a remote homestead. We’re looking for families who are planning to make the move to the country this fall, with ambitious plans on self-sufficient living in a remote part of the States. I was wondering if any of your clients might fit the brief that we’re looking for. And I’d really appreciate it if you were able to forward the attached flyer to any clients that are making this kind of move from the city, or include our appeal in your next newsletter, or even post it on your website.
We do have an office in LA, but our initial research for this project is coming from our London office. If you have any queries, please do call me on 011 44 207 251 6966. In the meanwhile, you can view all of our productions at www.ricochet.co.uk
Many thanks for your help. Best regards, James Christie-Miller, Development Produce, Ricochet Films, Cairo Studios, 4 Nile Street, London N1 7RF, 011 44 207 251 6966; www.ricochet.co.uk.
