Thanks to friends in the sustainable ag world for the list below of films on the ever-popular topic of food. There are some additional ones on the Presbyterian’s Food and Faith site. Plus, at the bottom of this post are some media databases and other film and book resources to choose from.
Remember. Consuming good food is not enough, help yourself and others to consume a healthy dose of good media too!
FILMS
A film that charts Farmer John’s astonishing journey from farm boy to counter-culture rebel to the son who almost lost the family farm to a beacon of today’s booming organic farming movement.
This is a twofold journey: the story of how two college buddies learned about their agricultural heritage, and the tale of how kernels of corn have insidiously worked their way into America’s diet.
DECONSTRUCTING SUPPER (PHP has this to lend out for church and community events)
A journey into the billion-dollar battle to control food production.
