| Summary |
Four films discuss food and where it comes from. The future of food investigates genetically modified foods and the increasing corporate control of our food supply. Fridays at the farm is a portrait of a farm and the close-knit community it nourishes. The happy box! introduces the Community Supported Agriculture movement, which helps support small farmers and healthy consumers by connecting customers directly with those who grow their food. Planting seeds is a story of young children and their school organic gardens. |
