Film Review Comments:
"Couldn't be more timely! A film made to awaken our taste buds and our courage to create a food system aligned with what the earth needs and what our bodies yearn for. GOOD FOOD shows us it's possible. It's happening!" Frances Moore Lappe, author, Diet for a Small Planet, Hope's Edge
"Food scarcity may become the dominant issue of our time. This film demonstrates that abundance is possible, when we refocus on regional agriculture and honor those who are making it happen. This film is a celebration of the best of the Northwest, portrayed through food and those whose hands grow it." Michael Ableman, farmer and author of On Good Land and Fields Of Plenty.
"Good Food is an intelligent, sensitive, and very timely witness to the ultimate interdependence of producers and eaters. The warmth and wisdom of this film will inspire and reassure all who continue to work for greater community food security, in communities everywhere." Goldie Caughlan, nutrition educator, PCC Natural Markets, former member National Organic Standards Board
"The film visits many of the pioneers in the movement to ‘re-localize' our food system and documents, first hand, the tremendous grassroots work that is being done here in the Northwest." Mary Embleton, Executive Director, Cascade Harvest Coalition
"We grow stuff that's tasty. Ideally, with taste comes nutrition... that's what food is. If it doesn't taste good and it isn't good for you, then it is just sort of a bad habit." Sam Lucy, Bluebird Grain Farms [excerpt from the film].
"Not only does the film convey the ingenious methods of some of the sustainable producers, but it also shows innovative ways they are marketing their products to help sustain themselves as family farmers." Maurice Robinette, beef producer and field organizer for Washington Sustainable Food and Farming Network
