MORE ON THE EAT LOCAL FILM SERIES IN ONTARIO
Ballygiblin's restaurant owner, Roger Weldon organized this series. Weldon says, "My idea is to try to help generate some awareness about why we do what we do in supporting local. This Canadian "Eat Local' film series offers a dinner/show package, or you can just catch the movie where there will also be a wine tasting. Weldon decided it was time to offer a series of food-themed documentaries after coming back from a Terra Madre conference. Terra Madre is a network of groups committed to producing quality food with responsible and sustainable practices.
The series opened in October with the classic Big Night starring Stanley Tucci and Tony Shalhoub.
Eating Alaska is second up, to followed by:
The World According to Monsanto
a documentary that looks at the global corporate giant.
Food, Inc.
how the world has changed since multinational corporations took over global food production
Mondovino
how corporations have tried to bring assimilation into the world of wine production.
The Future of Food
examining how food itself has been changed by technology.
