Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

This New Agey, California-style drama marks the directorial debut of Deborah Koons, the widow of Grateful Dead leader Jerry Garcia. It is set upon a Northern California organic ranch owned by widow Kate, whose husband died after he accidentally ingested poisonous 'shrooms. Kate lives there with her daughter Eva. Their peaceful life is interrupted by an unexpected visit from her nympho sister-in-law Lisa and her newest boy friend, the gold-digging Raoul, a tennis instructor. They have come to turn their part of the ranch into a tennis resort. Kate is most displeased and knows she must do something to stop them. She then discovers some very strange crystals growing in the late hubby's lab. Later, a friendly witch offers a little magical, herb-enhanced assistance of her own. Unfortunately for Kate, things don't quite go as planned.
