Cinema Arts Centre - THE REAL DIRT ON FARMER JOHN

 In celebration of National Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Week, the Cinema Art Centre’s film series Let’s Eat: Food on Film is presenting The Real Dirt on Farmer John. A great American epic, this film tells the true story of farmer John Peterson. With the death of his father, he abandons chemical farming in a move towards organic farming. But soon rumors condemn him as a Satan-worshipping drug-dealer. Threatened with murder, John defies all odds by exploring a new concept on how to get his crops out to the public and save his farm by starting a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture).

 

If you’d like to know more about CSAs and how to get involved with one, after the film there’ll be a discussion with Bhavani Jaroff of Slow Food North Shore, and suzanne j. zoubeck, curator of Let’s Eat: Food on Film and founder of Green Thumb CSA – Huntington (the first CSA in the Huntington area celebrating its 28th anniversary this year).

 

And while watching the movie, enjoy some of the Cinema Arts Centre’s certified organic Popcorn with certified organic Butter (the only movie theater on Long Island that serves this 😊).

 

Best wishes, and maybe I’ll see you at the movies 😊!
