Whole Foods Market joins with Food Gatherers and Slow Food Huron Valley to present an evening of film, food, music and friends. Admission is $5. Tickets are available at the door. Seating is limited. All proceeds from the event benefit Slow Food Huron Valley and Food Gatherers.

The evening opens with a special performance by artists from Rap For Food (www.rapforfood.org [1]) Rap For Food supports educational programs related to youth gardening, sustainable food systems, and healthy eating through the arts.

The performance is followed by a screening of the movie Food Stamped, a humorous but informative documentary film that follows a couple as they attempt to eat a healthy, well-balanced diet on a food stamp budget. Through their adventures they consult with members of U.S. Congress, food justice organizations, nutrition experts, and people living on food stamps to take a deep look at America’s broken food system http://www.foodstamped.com/ [2]      Trailer: http://vimeo.com/31749550 [3]
