A new food documentary has just been released: Fresh. This film is upbeat, positive, and promotes the local, sustainable growing of food. It features Joel Salatin from Polyface Farms and Will Allen from Growing Power, Inc, among others. While it does expose the food industry for what it is (unsustainable and harmful), the movie focuses on what we can do in our own neighborhoods to support agriculture that is sustainable and beneficial to everyone.
The best part? For the next couple of days it is FREE to stream from your computer and watch. How cool! I just finished watching it this afternoon, and it was great. Just follow this link to sign up to watch it for free. Go check it out!
Here's how the producers describe their documentary:
FRESH celebrates the farmers, thinkers and business people across America who are re-inventing our food system. Each has witnessed the rapid transformation of our agriculture into an industrial model, and confronted the consequences: food contamination, environmental pollution, depletion of natural resources, and morbid obesity. Forging healthier, sustainable alternatives, they offer a practical vision for a future of our food and our planet.
