Ben Perrin is a drifter, or perhaps a reformed drifter. Before he bought 100 acres of blueberry barrens in Maine, he says he lived in 42 different states. So each summer, Ben invites drifters to come pick blueberries at his farm. He sticks to traditional, non-mechanized farming methods. Independent producer Joshua Gleason pays a visit to the traditional drifter blueberry farm.
