    Local food is all the rage, and for good reason!
    Great people are working hard here in Cary and beyond to bring healthy, sustainable food to our plates. But how they are doing it might surprise you. Creating new and innovative systems, working together, and connecting with consumers today’s farmers are a new breed.
    Come and be inspired by their work by watching 3 short films, followed by a short panel discussion.  All proceeds will support the work of Good Hope Farm here in Cary, NC.
    Films start at 7:00, and panel is expected to start at 8:10 and conclude at 8:35 PM.

    What Can Be We’ve all heard the phrase ‘Reduce, repurpose, reuse recycle.’ Those are the four Rs of being green. But it’s hard to know your impact, or whether you’re having one. This is a story about how one small town is encouraging green building, and the beautiful results that can occur when we decide, together, to go green. Through the lens of one house under construction, director Lauren Speeth introduces a history of the environmental movement, with archival footage from the 1960s and 1970s, this film is both fun and informative. 22 min.
