This is the first year the company’s flagship site, HomegrownVideo.com, is nominated for Best Studio Website by AVN; the site is also currently nominated for Studio Site of the Year by the 2014 XBIZ Awards. The membership site is the source of “the world’s largest collection of real amateur porn,” with untouched, unedited photos and videos from amateurs the world over. The site also includes a community-based members’ area, which allows both fans and content creators a forum in which to discuss scenes, offer suggestions, and collectively work on creating better content as a group.

“We at Homegrown are incredibly proud and thrilled with these AVN nominations,” says Homegrown Video owner Farrell Timlake. “We try to keep our finger on the pulse of our amateur porn fans, as well as the amateur performers and videographers who submit content to us every day. Our exhibitionist and voyeur communities are extremely tight-knit, and I’d like to think that because of that, we’re able to offer amateur content made by our members, for our members. To then have our authentic amateur content recognized by the top industry critics and reviewers means we’re ‘doing amateur porn’ the right way. Thank you, AVN, from the entire Homegrown family!”

The 31st annual AVN Awards Show will be hosted by Chanel Preston and Wicked Pictures contract star Samantha Saint. For nearly three decades, the AVN Awards show, dubbed "the Oscars of adult" by Entertainment Weekly, has been the adult industry’s biggest night and the award itself, the industry’s highest honor. With a stylish red carpet pre-show and lavish star-studded ceremony, AVN celebrates outstanding achievements in “the business of pleasure.”
