Great films, great discussion, delicious local food, and more!
If you're interested in learning about where your food comes from, the benefits of eating local and homegrown food, or food in general, then this event is perfect for you!
The Organic Growers of Ithaca College, the student organization that maintains the community garden on campus, will host two short documentaries in one evening: Fridays at the Farm (about community supported agriculture) and Homegrown (on urban homesteading & gardening).
The event will be held on Wednesday, March 31st, in CNS 112 on Ithaca College's campus. Screening will begin at 7 pm.
We will hold a panel discussion afterward featuring the founders of the Ithaca College Community Garden, local farmer Todd McLane of WestHaven Farm, and other local food activists from Tompkins County. We hope to talk about ways to support our local food economy here in Tompkins County, highlighting local farms & community gardens.
Arrive on time, as there will be local treats, including a delicious slaw thanks to the Culinary Arts Club!
Hope to see you there! Bring your friends!
