The Biggest Little Farm: The Return
This Disney+ Earth Day special from National Geographic is based on the 2018 award-winning feature documentary film that tells the story of John and Molly Chester, who abandon their urban life in Los Angeles to grow delicious food in harmony with nature in Ventura County.
Follow them as they transform their land into Apricot Lane Farms, a beautiful and complex world that reflects our planet’s biodiversity, and observe in awe of how they utilize the interconnectedness of nature to help build soil health, maximize biodiversity, and regeneratively grow the most nutrient-dense food possible.
Stream The Biggest Little Farm from Apr 22, exclusively on Disney+.
Polar Bear
Narrated by two-time Academy Award nominee Catherine Keener (“Capote,” “Being John Malkovich”) and helmed by a directing team behind Disneynature’s “Penguins” this Disney nature special tells the story of a polar bear whose youthful memories prepare her to navigate motherhood in an increasingly challenging climate today.
Learn about how the harsh challenges polar bears face in current times can be mitigated through our contributions to the environment! Stream Polar Bear from Apr 22, exclusively on Disney+.
Explorer: The Last Tepui
In this one-hour National Geographic special, follow elite climbers Alex Honnold (“Free Solo”), Mark Synnott on a gruelling mission deep in the Amazon jungle up a 1000 foot sheer cliff to deliver legendary biologist and National Geographic Explorer Dr Bruce Means to the top of a massive “island in the sky” known as a tepui.
The team must first trek miles of treacherous jungle terrain to help Dr. Means complete his life’s work, searching the cliff wall for undiscovered animal species. This Earth Day, learn why the tepuis – much like the Galapagos – are a treasure trove of biodiversity worth protecting.
