Ingredients

Ingredients- a documentary film
Sunday, September 26th, 7 pm, Kohala Intergenerational Center, Donation

The local food movement takes root.
American food is in a state of crisis. Health, food costs and our environment are all in jeopardy. A movement to put good food back on the table is emerging. What began 30 years ago with chefs demanding better flavor, has inspired consumers to seek relationships with nearby farmers. This is local food.

Sustainable Kohala will show the film Ingredients. Ingredients has been making a splash at film festivals around the world and is the story of the people behind the national local foods movement- from the diversified farms of the Hudson River and Willamette Valleys to the urban food deserts of Harlem and to the kitchens of celebrated chefs Alice Waters, Peter Hoffman and Greg Higgins. Attention being paid to the local food movement comes at a time when the failings of our current industrialized food system are becoming all too clear. Narrated by Bebe Neuwirth, the film is a journey that reveals the people behind the movement to bring good food back to the table and health back to our communities.
