Montrose Pavilion, Montrose, Colorado Planting Prosperity: Local Foods & Sustainable Communities celebrates the people who are working to improve our foods and the systems that deliver them in order to better sustain not only our bodies, but also our communities. In discussions with our panelists and other local activists, we hope to “open our conscience to our place in the world” and be inspired to make a difference. |
“Food is the one central thing about human experience that can open up both our senses and our conscience to our place in the world.” -- Alice Waters, proprietor of Chez Panisse
"Every purchase is a political act." -- Michael Pollan, author of "The Ominivore's Dilemma" |
As part of our celebration, we'll show FRESH, the movie, at 5:30 pm!
