SUMMARY:Farm to Film Fest 2023
DESCRIPTION:It matters how farmers farm and eaters eat. Our current food system is not supporting people or the planet – but there is tremendous hope for change.

Join us for a day of food\, films\, live music\, workshops\, thoughtful discussion\, dancing and more! \nFarm to Film Fest 2023 is a collaboration between JAM – Junction Arts & Media\, Vital Communities\, and King Arther Baking Company\, made possible in part through support from Vermont Humanities and media sponsor Vermont Public that aims to build awareness of the importance of agriculture as a climate solution and of the harms the current exploitive\, racist\, and unsustainable food system creates. Our mission is to promote Upper Valley farms that are taking direct climate action and to share hopeful solutions for climate crisis. \nView Farm To Film Festival 2023 schedule.
