[TheUWfarm] upcoming movie: The Garden - Monday Night

Hello Everyone,

This movie announcement didn't make it in our weekly newsletter but the folks at College Greens asked me to forward this message to the list. - It would be fun to see the Garden in a big group!

---------------

College Greens is devoted to environmental and social justice issues. We are trying to network with other groups on campus who have similar interests and collaborate on projects. So far we've worked on issues like 350 day, Coal Free Washington with the Sierra Club, the student strike, and the Campus Sustainability Fund. 

This coming Monday we are showing the film The Garden as the second part of our three-part film series.  We thought people at the UW Farm would be particularly interested in this one as it focuses on urban agriculture in LA as well as social, racial and economic inequalities in America. We also be hosting Devon Peña from the Project on the Environment who will speak afterwards, and we will have free homemade pizza!  

This should be a great event and we would love to have any of you come and engage in a discussion of these issues and learn more about them!

Time and place are as follows:

The Garden 
Hosted by College Greens at UW
Featuring David Pena
Monday, May 17th
