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.

Enjoy the movie! I saw a screening of it a few months ago and loved it. My favorite part was being able to see Joel Salatin's farm after reading about it in Omnivore's Dilemma.
Oh, how cool. If I were closer I'd be there in a second! I hope it is a great night. I've heard a lot about the movie. I'll just have to be patient for a while before I get the chance to see it.
I would love to see this film.
