Food for Thought, Food for Life?

We will hold a screening of the short documentary, "Food for Thought, Food for Life?" hosted by Susan Rockefeller.

Panel discussion moderated by Brian Halweil, Editor-in-Chief, Edible East End, along with representatives from Quail Hill Farm, Sylvester Manor, and Amber Waves to follow.

"We want our food fast, convenient and cheap, but at what cost? As farms have become supersized, our environment suffers and so does the quality of our food. Food for Thought, Food for Life explains the downsides of current agribusiness practices, and also introduces us to farmers, chefs, researchers, educators, and advocates who are providing solutions. The film is both poetic and practical; its powerful examination of the connections between our planet and our well-being is accompanied by specific strategies that protect both. With an eye towards a sustainable and abundant future, it offers inspiration for communities that are ready to make a difference." - http://foodforthoughtfilm.com/about/
