Screening The Last Crop's WIP in Central Valley and Bay Area

Hello Everyone,

It has been a very good week to ten days. I am getting ready to drive to Somoma State University for our 4th screening of our new work-in-progress (WIP) this week. Slow Food Sonoma State University's students are hosting a Northern California Slow Food Gathering from 12-5PM. Our screening follows the event at 5:30.

It all started with a evening screening at the 22nd Annual Hoes Down Festival held at Full Belly Farms in Guinda, CA on 10/3 . On Tuesday the 6th, we had a brown bag lunch screening at the CA Department of Food where Annie and Jeff Main spoke directly with Secretary A.G. Kawamura. Later that afternoon, we had a great screening and talkback session with 70 Sacramento State University students of the Environmental Student Organization at the university's Hinde Auditorium. Another 100 people attended our Friday night screening at the Senior Davis Performing Arts Building hosted by Slow Foods Yolo and the Davis to Farm Connection.

The response to our WIP has been very positive. The feedback has been constructive and appreciated.


We have another busy week of screenings coming up with a requests to screen our WIP at:
Land Trust Alliance (national) Rally
Portland Convention Center
Tues Oct 13 in the "Working Lands" - "When Conservation Easements Aren't Enough"...

And

Davis Senior High School's - Agriculture Department

Followed by screenings at the San Francisco School of Digital Filmmaking - hosting San Francisco Slow Foods members on 14th and with Slow Food Russian River on the 15th.


Stay tuned for next week's news.
Best

Chuck
