Join us for an evening to stimulate your palate and your mind. We'll tickle your tastebuds with a beverage & a selection of bite-sized delights. Then we'll be screening a thought-provoking, well-balanced film featuring Joel Salatin who uses a system of pasture rotation to produce pork, beef and chicken in a way that is both economically and environmentally sustainable. The film also respectfully presents conventional ways of meat production through the eyes and stories of commodity farmers. After a short break we'll come back for a panel discussion with industry representatives & consumers to explore some of the themes of the film and consider how we could make personal choices that will ultimately move our food system and our culture in a more sustainable, ethical direction.
Village engages individuals, neighbourhoods & organizations to take actions that build sustainable communities & have fun doing it. Join us!
