Events

On 10 May, the Youth Food Movement will transform the Food Connect warehouse in Rozelle into a pop-up movie theatre and present the inaugural Reel Food Night. Come along for a a stimulating night of conversation and film on the issue that affects us all – food. The Greenhorns, a film about America’s young farmers, will be screened with a pedal-power projector thanks to Magnificent Revolution.

With the average age of a farmer in Australia being 57 years old, who is going to be producing our food in 20 years time? These and other questions will be addressed by a killer panel including:

• Costa Georgiadis of ABC’s Gardening Australia
• Julian Lee, founder of Food Connect Sydney
• Karl Cooney from Yulli’s restaurant and the Veggie Patch Van
• Tobias Bland from Currawong Organics

Share in the conversation and take part in a feast of food for thought!
