Absolutely love it! Powerful! We live on 5 rocky, mountainous acres but have been building raised beds, gardening, adding livestock (chickens, goats) gradually. Committed to supporting local, organic growers even as we learn. :)

Thanks for the tip, We will have to have our local library order food inc for us.
Is it OK for 4 and 6 year olds??. (They understand butchering, they see me butcher.) I still do not let them watch me kill though. (I really hate the killing part..)

I get grossed out by butcher shops and by public food places. All those people handling my food! We still eat out on a rare occasion, but personally I feel much much safer eat food that dropped on the forest floor covered in dirt, than I do at the majority of public eateries.... (Of course I prefer to not have dirt on my food! Darn sand can break a tooth;))

My 6 yr old watched Food Inc. It does have a few icky scenes but nothing too graphic.

No Fresh screenings near me :(

I got it yesterday (boy Amazon delivers fast!) but I went into hibernation mode and by 8:30 I was out cold. Maybe tonight I'll be able to stay up.

Good movie, almost everything they talked about I was already aware of but I love seeing those facts being put into a popular movie.

Food, Inc has been nominated for an Oscar for Best Documentary Feature.

That is going to look really nice on our promo material for film night!
