Home Grown: Local Sustainable Food
Home Grown is a photographic exploration of local food production and sustainable farming in Vancouver and the surrounding region, presented by Green Zebra participant Museum of Vancouver (MOV) and FarmFolk/CityFolk. In photo-journalistic style, 39 stunning images by photographer, Brian Harris, contain a call-to-action for individuals and communities to reclaim control of local food systems and to think carefully about the ethics of food consumption decisions that are made everyday. Accompanying programs give a deeper understanding and appreciation of local food production issues as well as the inspiration and skills to start a backyard or community garden.
Details: August 26, 2010 to January 2, 2011 at MOV, 1100 Chestnut Street, Vanier Park, Vancouver www.museumofvancouver.ca
