DESCRIPTION:"Fair Food: Field to Table" A FOOD DAY Film Screening & Discussion\n\n" The 
 promise of improved farm labor practices in American agriculture" \n\nWith 
 the theme of Food Justice for this year’s FOOD DAY, we will be showing 
 “Fair Food: Field to Table” a multimedia presentation promoting a more 
 socially just food system in the U.S. It was created by us at California 
 Institute for Rural Studies and Rick Nahmias Photography. For years it has 
 been a recommended film for FOOD DAY events! \n\nThrough the stories and 
 voices of farmworkers, growers, businesses and fair food advocates, viewers 
 learn about the harsh realities of farmworker conditions and, more 
 importantly, the promise of improved farm labor practices in American 
 agriculture. The growing movement for “fair food” is tapping into 
 rising consumer demand for food produced in accordance with their values. 
 \n\nThe presentation consists of three parts: \nPart 1: The Farmworkers 
 \nPart 2: The Farmers \nPart 3: The Advocates \nAfter the screening, we 
 will have a question & answer session with special guests, who all have 
 deep experience in these areas, and will provide expert insight. \nThe 
 event is free and open to the public – donations gratefully accepted! 
 \n\n"Justice throughout the food chain—from farm workers to child 
 consumers—will be a special focus for the fourth annual Food Day, as will 
 increasing Americans’ access to healthful food. Culminating on October 
 24, Food Day is an event that organizers hope will inspire many Americans 
 to improve their own diets and work toward solving food-related problems at 
 the local, state, and national level. Started by the nonprofit Center for 
 Science in the Public Interest and other food leaders in 2011, Food Day 
 quickly grew to 5,000 events from coast to coast last year alone." 
 \n#FoodDay2014 #RealFoodJustFood \n\nCome early or stay late to enjoy the 
 hidden gem of the Bay Area, historic Mare Island. The Mare Island Shoreline 
 Heritage Preserve is on the Southern side of the Island, with sweeping 
 views of the Bay, hiking trails, picnic areas and the oldest Naval Cemetery 
 west of the Mississippi, with graves dating back to the 1860's. We'll be 
 watching the movie in their Visitors Center - formerly a 1934 Ammunitions 
 Bunker! The event is free & open to the public, though donations are 
 gratefully accepted!\n
