Free Film Screening of King Corn presented by GMO Free NJ

KING
CORN--FREE FILM SCREENING


Don't
miss the third film in GMO Free NJ's summer film festival--King Corn. KING CORN
is a documentary about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop
that drives our fast-food nation.


In
KING CORN, Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, best friends from college on the East
Coast, move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the help
of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, and powerful herbicides, they
plant and grow a bumper crop of America's most-productive, most-subsidized grain
on one acre of Iowa soil. But when they try to follow their pile of corn into
the food system, what they find raises troubling questions about how we eat -
and how we farm.


Features
Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore's Dilemma, and Earl Butz, former US
Secretary of Agriculture.


This
event is free and open to the public. Bring a friend
Thursday.
