About this event

What happens to all the food we grow but never eat? And what can we do to change that? Join Slow Food Portland for a special screening, followed by a community conversation exploring food waste and the local efforts working to address it. In this thought-provoking documentary, filmmakers Jen Rustemeyer and Grant Baldwin challenge themselves to live for six months on food that would otherwise be thrown away. Along the way, they uncover the staggering amount of perfectly edible food wasted across our food system and the environmental, social, and economic consequences. Following the film, we’ll bring together local panelists working in food recovery, sustainability, and food systems to discuss what’s happening here in Portland and how we can create a less wasteful, more equitable food system. Whether you’re passionate about food justice, sustainability, or simply curious about reducing food waste, we hope you’ll join us for an evening of film, conversation, and community. Director: Jenny Rustemeyer & Grant Baldwin Year: 2014 Country: United States Runtime: 75 minutes
