Movie Title: Good Food
  57 min. 2008
Filmmakers:

Mark Dworkin & Melissa Young

  McNabb/Connolly
Description:

Something remarkable is happening in the fields and orchards of the Pacific Northwest. After leaving the land for decades, family farmers are making a comeback. They are growing much healthier food, and more food per acre, while using less energy and water than factory farms. And most of this food is organic. For decades Northwest agriculture was focused on a few big crops for export. But climate change and the end of cheap energy mean that each region needs to produce more of its own food and to grow it more sustainably. Good Food visits farmers, farmers' markets, distributors, stores, restaurants, and public officials who are developing a more sustainable food system for all.
