at The Palm
(on Palm Street near Broad in SLO)


Tues., August 28th
from 7 to 9pm at

On Tuesday, August 28, HopeDance Magazine will present three short films that
examine the problems and solutions of America's agricultural industry, the
dangers of GMO foods, and successful farming methods in our area.

"A Time to Act for Family Farms" is a 30-minute sobering examination of our
industrial agricultural industry offering a new type of sustainable family
farm as a solution.

"Against the Grain" is a 15-minute film about the dangers of GMO (Genetically
Modified/Mutated Organism) foods.
"Beyond Organics" is a 35-minute film on Michael Ableman's highly successful
Fairview Gardens in Goleta, Ca.

Bill Spencer, owner of Windrose Farms (an organic farm) in Paso Robles, will
also speak about growing, processing, and marketing organic foods, including
an overview of Community Supported Farm (CSF) programs in the County.

The evening will be highly informative for anyone interested in making safe
food choices, growing and/or selling their own food, and connecting with the
local organic farm community.

The presentation and films are from 7:00-9:00 p.m. No reservations are
necessary.  General admission is $10; $5 for students, seniors and children
under 12. Call HopeDance at 544-9663 for details.  Proceeds benefit HopeDance
Magazine. Dinner at Big Sky starts at 5:00p.m. for those who wish to hang out
socially before the film gig.>>
