Fresh (the movie) Screening Nov 22nd

Many of you have probably thought, "Yeah, I realize the food industry is broken, but what am I to do about it?"  Every day, you get to vote, 3 times a day!  (With what else can you do that??) And if you have a family, your grocery shopping can be even more impactful.  Change will come if we demand it.  By choosing the food we eat, we can influence the demand.  Be thoughtful about your grocery shopping and inquisitive about your food selection.  Nothing will change if we do nothing.  Simple isn't it?  Simple concept, yes, but easy to change? No.  Start with one food category.  Meat, for example.  Talk to your local meat market and ask questions about processing, from farm to case.  It's your food.  You have a right to know.  When have you bought a computer or a car without asking a single question about it?  And you're not even eating it...at least I hope not! 

Come check out Fresh for more ideas and inspiration on how to restructure the food system.  Hope to see you there and stay for a discussion following!  Trinity Lutheran Church, 210 7th St S, Moorhead.  Doors open at 6:30.  Movie at 7pm.
