Documentary “Good Food” airs tonight on PBS

Cathy Fulton sent me word that a local documentary on small farms, “Good Food”, will air tonight on channel 9/PBS at 10pm. (Apparently Vashon makes an appearance.)

Quoting from the PI blog:”  We all need Good Food! Mark Dworkin and Melissa Young, award-winning filmmakers from South Whidbey, have produced another environmental documentary that is spreadin’ the word. It airs on PBS this Thursday, Nov. 12 at 10 PM on KCTS/9 Seattle and KYVE/47 Yakima.

It’s fascinating to see how new life is being breathed into the fields, orchards and pastures of the Pacific Northwest — along with the business community that sustains them.”

Here’s the link to the film web site: www.goodfoodthemovie.org/

gardens on the south end of Vashon Island, on a sandy hilltop overlooking Quartermaster Harbor. "Garden On, Vashon" shares what the Island has to teach us about gardening HERE—from making soils to sowing seeds to raising plants to harvest, cooking, preserving, and designing new ways to cultivate your little chunk of Vashon Island.
