Following the Hootenanny, come en masse at 8 pm Saturday to Farmageddon shown at the Stephens College Rustic Ring (Stables on Old 63). The film looks at why local food can be so pricey and hard to find. Farmageddon tells the story of small, family farms that were providing safe, healthy foods to their communities until government agencies forced them to stop.
*Tickets can be purchased at CJFF Box Office in the Stephens College, Columbia Foyer. Columbia Foyer is on t…he North side of Broadway after the intersection of Broadway and College.
!!Before the film, we’ll have a promo area, so if you have local CSAs or other such farming goodness to promote, please drop off your fliers, etc. to the Rustic Ring Arena (off of Old 63) by 6:45 pm on Saturday. Contact Neeley Current with questions.
