SYNOPSIS
Can the small American farm survive in today’s world of corporate greed? Not if Chick-LieSome has anything to say about it. This big city tycoon wants to buy up all the small farms in America and use them to produce petri dish animals and food products. With the help of a local college research specialist, our vamp, Holotta Trouble he seeks to destroy our helpless Deere family in the heart of America. However along the way he has no idea what he’s up against. Not only is the Deere family dedicated to their work and farm, their neighbors show what small town America is made of.
