We at the Richmond Food Collective are all about sustainable agriculture. Keeping our environment healthy is key to maintaining our sources for delicious food. Naturally, we support all things environmental, and we will be attending Richmond's first Environmental Film Festival! Definitely consider attending this event, entitled "The Biggest Picture," which was "created to raise awareness about urgent environmental issues such as overpopulation, pollution, deforestation, global warming, open space destruction, corporate profiteering, and mountaintop removal mining."
The event was organized by a group of VCU students called "VCU Ecodefense," and will take place at the Byrd Theater in Carytown. Over two days, February 9th and 10th, the event will "showcase 8 films, live music, and noted environmental speakers, including Ralph Nader, who will speak for an hour and a half followed by a book signing." You can get tickets at quite a few locations, including Ellwood Thompson's and Ipanema Cafe, two of our favorite places. Tickets are $15 for the weekend, $10 for a 1 day pass. See you there!
