Screening of : Growing Cities- A Film About Urban Farming in America

Meet, greet, and share locally grown snacks at 6:30. The
film “Growing Cities” will screen at 7:00 followed by a series of brief
presentations on ways to get involved in efforts that promote food growing in
our city.



The film: A documentary film that examines the role of urban
farming in America
and asks how much power it has to revitalize our cities and change the way we
eat. In their search for answers, filmmakers Dan Susman and Andrew Monbouquette
take a road trip and meet the men and women who are challenging the way this
country grows and distributes its food, one vacant city lot, rooftop garden,
and backyard chicken coop at a time. They discover that good food isn’t the
only crop these urban visionaries are harvesting. They’re producing stronger
and more vibrant communities, too.
