  FRESH: New Thinking About What We're Eating

  Join Sustainable Cherry Hill and Tuv Ha'Aretz for a screening of the new documentary, FRESH on Sunday, November 1, 7pm at the Ritz Theatre, 915 White Horse Pike in Haddon Township, NJ.
  (NOT the Ritz Movie Theatre!)

  FRESH celebrates the farmers, thinkers and business people across America who are re-inventing our food system.

  Among several main characters, FRESH features urban farmer and activist, Will Allen, a 2008 MacArthur's "Genius Award" fellow; sustainable farmer and entrepreneur, Joel Salatin, made famous by Michael Pollan's book, the Omnivore's Dilemma; and supermarket owner, David Ball, who is creating a new market model for our family farmers. FRESH's focus on these inspiring individuals and their initiatives around the US provides the audience with actionable solutions.

  Great for teens!

  FRESH is a call to action. Watch the trailer here.

  Stay for a dynamic panel discussion following the film with the filmaker, Ana Sophia Joanes, Joe Palombo, Executive Director of the South Jersey Green Dining Association, Stacey Kennealy, Green Faith Director of Sustainability and Nati Passow, Co-founder and Director of The Jewish Farm School. SCH's own Lori Braunstein will be moderating the panel.

  Click HERE to purchase tickets for $12 (plus online fee) or buy your tickets at the door.

  Tuv HaAretz is funded in part by The Jewish Community Foundation of Southern New Jersey.
