Celebrate Earth Day by joining area experts in a free program about sustainability with a focus on food. The evening includes food tastings, a cooking demonstration, and a screening of the Academy Award Nominated documentary, Food, Inc. An informal panel discussion with audience questions will follow the film. In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation's food industry. Featuring interviews with such experts as Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma) along with forward thinking social entrepreneurs like Stonyfield's Gary Hirshberg and Polyface Farms' Joel Salatin, Food, Inc. reveals surprising—and often shocking—truths about what we eat, how it's produced, who we have become as a nation.
This event is a collaboration with P.O.V., PBS' award-winning nonfiction film series: http://www.pbs.org/pov/
