Gather. Modern Grange Events

Screening

Food and Farm Film Fest

There’s a growing conversation about food; we want to know what we are eating, whether it’s healthy, where it comes from, who made or grew it, and if it’s sustainable. The food-consciousness movement is a powerful force, and thanks to the Food and Farm Film Fest, it now has a creative outlet. For the 2015 festival, directors Sarah Nelson and Mischa Nachtigal curated a series of short films from around the world in all styles on the topics of food and farming, knowing that neither is complete without the other. In an encore showing from the festival’s opening night, these 18 short films will bring up and answer mind-expanding questions that will make you laugh, cry, and head for the kitchen.

The program will begin at 7pm with an introduction from festival directors Sarah and Mischa. Wine, beer, and other selections from the SHED fermentation bar will be available for purchase.
