Film Series - Eating Alabama

Date: Friday, September 30, 2016 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Join Friends for Good Films, Good Company and Popcorn. We're kicking off our 2016 season with the documentary "Eating Alabama" in honor of the Festival of Family Farms this same weekend.

In search of a simpler life, a young couple returns home to Alabama where they set out to eat the way their grandparents did – locally and seasonally. But as they navigate the agro-industrial gastronomical complex, they soon realize that nearly everything about the food system has changed since farmers once populated their family histories. A thoughtful and often funny essay on community, the South and sustainability, “Eating Alabama” is a story about why food matters.
