We want our food fast, convenient and cheap, but at what cost? As farms have become supersized, our environment suffers and so does the quality of our food.

Susan Rockefeller’s Food for Thought, Food for Life, poetically and in practical terms explains the downsides of current agribusiness practices, and also introduces us to farmers, chefs, researchers, educators, and advocates who are providing solutions. The 22-minute film is a powerful examination of the connections between our planet and our well-being is accompanied by specific strategies that protect both. With an eye towards a sustainable and abundant future, it offers inspiration for communities that are ready to make a difference.

Since its launch on Food Day, October 24, Food for Thought, Food for Life has become a popular choice at film festivals, schools and all manner of gatherings.
