Food, Inc. AND Fresh, Flicks at Sunrise!
[from Jan's Cottage Garden Newsletter]
After two sell-out nights in August for the documentary "Food, Inc," the Sunrise Theater is bringing it back next month.
Yes, the important and much-talked-about "FOOD, INC" will make its return engagement Tues-Wed, Oct 20-21. If you didn't get to see, now is your chance, and bring a friend. If you have seen it, tell a friend.

It's been said that if "Food, Inc" was your wake-up call, "Fresh" is a look at some of our options.
Featured in the film is more of the ever-engaging Joel Salatin, plus McAurthur Genius Grant award-winner Will Allen of Milwaukee's innovative "Growing Power".
I had a chance to meet Will this June, and tour the simple community-engaged systems of "Growing Power" with my mad-scientist brother. The "urban farm" produces local food year-round in Milwaukee, Wisconsin! Lake perch from aquaculture, and fresh greens, are the year-round stars. Worm compost is the fertilizer.
Anyway "Fresh" (see: www.freshthemovie.com).

Oops, No Monday Night Movie
Correction. We got ahead of ourselves by posting Food, Inc. for Monday. So far as we know now, Food, Inc. will NOT be showing tomorrow evening.
8/15/2009
Food, Inc. Held Over for Monday!
Unbelievable! The movie, Food, Inc, sold out both nights!
No documentary previously had sold out at the Sunrise. AND they are holding it over one more night... Monday, August 17 at 7:30 pm. Same price... $7.
So far as we know, there will be no panel discussion afterward, but you will still get a program filled with info you can use to increase your access to healthful foods and help us make changes by simply doing what we do... shop! WE HAVE THE POWER... the power of our dollars! Farmers have promised that the more "REAL" food we demand from them, the more they will produce.
So if you didn't get a chance to attend Thursday or Friday... or know someone who missed Food, Inc., let them know we're on for Monday!

Yes! We're on!
Today's Sunrise Theater's grand opening of Food, Inc. happens, rain or no rain. Venders, booths will be set up on the green beside the theater. Hey, nobody's every melted in the rain!
8/11/2009
Reminder, Aug 13, 14, Sunrise Theater
"Food, Inc. " will be screened on Thursday and Friday evenings, August 13 & 14 at the Sunrise Theater in Southern Pines. A big party on the green next to the theater precedes it. Please bring a friend and an appetite.
The community has coalesced around this special showing by the Sunrise Theater in a manner both surprising, inspiring and delightful. We're becoming a "foodie" community, neighbors. And the screening and panel last weekend in Fayetteville was a hit. Congratulations to Fayetteville!
This week's screenings should in Southern Pines be even more of a hit, as we're throwing a big party to go along with it.
Both screenings will be followed by a panel, community discussion and Q&A in the theater with local food and community advocates. Tickets for the film go on sale 30 minutes before showtime (possibly earlier this night - stay tuned for details) and are $5 for children under 12, and $7 for adults. For more information call theSunrise box office at 910-692-3611.
On Thursday only, August 13, opening day.... we kick it off with
"The Moore the Merrier"
A Celebration of Local Food
From 5pm 7:30pm on Thursday, August 13, come enjoy local food, wine, beer, music and more at The Moore the Merrier...
Thanks to the enthusiastic efforts of local foodie Mariah Fong, we can come to a celebration and sample local foods prepared by local chefs on the Sunrise Theater green. Visit with farmers, local craftsfolk and shopkeepers and beekeepers.
Some of the vendors/participants include: Ashten's, Chef Warren's, La Poblanita, 195, Rhett's, White Rabbit Catering, Wolcott's, Sharron Scott - Raw Chef, Moore County Farmers Market, Griffin Family Farm, Half-Acre Farm, Toole, Family Apiary, Full Circle Farm, Raven's Wing Natural Healing, Fancy Faces 4 U, Santi Yoga Studio, Java Bean Plantation and Roasting Company, Foxy Biscotti, April Fool's ...and many many more!
Come hungry, as also this local food celebration benefits the Sandhills/Moore Coalition for Human Care, a United Way agency. (In fact, make it an afternnoon and come watch the benefit Tricycle Races before the Food Fest.) Then hustle on into the Sunrise to enjoy Food, Inc. at 7:30pm

Food, Inc. Coming to Sou. Pines, Aug. 13 or 14
HOLD THESE DATES! Thursday or Friday, August 13 or 14.
That is the dates the Sunrise Theater is making a special effort to bring the critical and entertaining new documentary "Food, Inc." to the Sandhills. This Summer SunFlix series offering begins at 7:30.
A lively group of local "foodies" and locavores pressed the case for it (the nearest showing is in Raleigh), and the Sunrise board listened. Hurray! Thank you Sunrise Theater!
Director Robert Kenner truly loves food. Said to be a stimulating to the national discussion of just what has happened to our food system in two or three short decades as the eye-opening Michal Pollan book "Omnivore's Dilemma," "Food, Inc." is a film everyone who eats needs to see. It just might affect your next buying trip to the store, or the next meal you eat.
Reviews for this movie are all over the web now, so check some out. One critic called it "The Inconvenient Truth of Food."
Here's one from PBS:
NOW | Behind the Food We Lovehttp://www.pbs.org/now/shows/523/index.html"Americans have a long-standing love affair with food - the modern supermarket has, on average, over 47,000 products. But do we really know what goes into making the products we so eagerly consume? David Brancaccio talks with filmmaker Robert Kenner, the director of 'Food, Inc.,' which takes a hard look at the secretive and surprising journey food takes on the way from processing plants to our dinner tables.
