SUMMARY:Green Sanctuary Fourth Friday Film - Food for Change
DESCRIPTION:Green Sanctuary Fourth Friday Film - Food for Change  October i
 s National Co-op month\, and Fourth Friday is joining other communities ac
 ross the country to show Food for Change\, an acclaimed documentary about
  food co-ops.\n\nFood for Change tracks the ups and downs of cooperatives
  since the Great Depression through rare archival footage\, animation\, gr
 aphics\, and interviews with co-op leaders. You’ll learn about the natio
 n’s longest surviving alternative economic system\, which is also a soci
 al movement based on principles of cooperation. Food co-ops introduced wh
 ole and organic foods to the American diet in the 1970s\; today they are t
 he champions of local food systems.\n\nFilmmaker Steve Alves\, who narrate
 s the film\, sees the story’s theme of cooperation as particularly relev
 ant to today’s political climate. “It’s American history\, from the 
 Great Depression to the present\, with co-ops as the protagonist\,” says
  Alves.\n\n“Across the U.S. we’re experiencing both a renaissance and 
 a challenge to food co-ops\,” says Sean Doyle\, General Manager of the 
 Seward Co-op. “As food co-ops have grown to be successful businesses wi
 th annual sales of over $2 billion\, they are facing fierce competition fr
 om corporate chain stores in the natural foods market they created. We wan
 t the public to know our story and what we stand for.” See the trailer
