Global Sistergoods and OPB invite you to a night of FREE cinema - March 26th

Film: King Corn
Where: St. Johns Twin Cinema, 8704 N. Lombard St.
Time: 8:00 pm

Two recent college grads discover where America's food comes from when they plan a single acre of corn and follow it from the seed to the dinner plate. With the help of government subsidies, genetically modified seeds and powerful herbicides, America's most-subsidized crop becomes the staple of its cheapest—and most troubling—foods.

Panel discussion to follow featuring filmmaker Curt Ellis; Lisa Sedlar, President of New Seasons Market; Mike Moran of the Oregon Food Bank; and Shari Raider of Sauvie Island Organics.

Come early and eat at Proper Eats (8638 N Lombard St Portland)! All movie goers who attend before the film and mention the screening will receive 10% off dinner.
