We are hoping to move forward on the production of 7 more episodes this spring in order for us to debut on Maine Public this summer. In order to produce these episodes we are trying to raise funds to pay for the production costs ($100,000). We have an amazingly generous anonymous donor who is matching any gift received dollar for dollar up to $50,000.
