Will you be watching?????
And if by some strange reason you have never heard Michael Pollan speak, here is an amazing interview with Bill Moyers (a favorite journalist).
(Mom, you will have to watch when everyone leaves work, or at my house on Saturday, but of course you have already read Michael Pollan.)

You may like (if you haven’t read already) “Deeply Rooted: Unconventional Farmers in the Age of Agribusiness” by Lisa M. Hamilton & “Nourishing Traditions” by Sally Fallon; thank you for reminding me once more how important my food choices are for me and for my family…

Yay! For Michael Pollan!
Oh, this is *so* important, and absolutely depressing knowing where so much of our food comes from! The trailer was amazing, thank you so much for bringing this to my attention. I had no idea this was coming out. I would love to see this. I appreciate when he said in the trailer… we make a vote with our dollar so true! I am so very thankful for farmer’s market and locally available food, including our own veggies… but there has to be more done about this! O.k. so, I could go on here for days!! This is a huge topic for me, so happy it is for you as well. Good job getting this up on your blog!!

thanks for the link. i had no idea this was out. i’m going to try and locate a theatre in my area that is showing this. i’m taking my teenage daughters too. i grew up on a farm and we were pretty much self-sustaining. didn’t give it much thought until i was out on my own and realized i was going to have to buy everything at the grocery store. it was kind of fun for a while, to be able to buy whatever i wanted. then i got smart. now i try to shop the perimeter of the grocery store and take advantage of local produce during the summer months. i’m amazed at the amount of junk that some families eat. what’s more amazing is the wonderful *real* foods that people are missing out on.
