Event Description

This film document reflects the dynamic nature of local food and farming in the Northern Berkshire community over two years (2008-2010). The footage follows some of the key players in the developing local food system in interviews, in the course of their everyday work, as well as in the challenges they face. Director/editor Sharon Wyrrick calls this a film document, as it does not tell a single story, but reflects the lives and commitments of a community hard at work creating a vibrant local food system.

If you missed the screening of my film, PLACE OF STONES: Food in Motion , about local food and farming in North Berkshire at Images Cinema back in April at the Farm Film Festival - you've another chance to view it! It will be airing on cable access stations NBCTC (North Adams, Adams, Clarksburg, and Cheshire) and on WilliNet (Williamstown) soon.

Here are the dates for NBCTC, Channel 15:

Saturday, October 13 -- Part I at 5PM and Part II at 7PM

Wednesday, October 17 - Part I at 1PM and Part II at 3PM

Saturday, October 20 - Part I at 5 PM and Part II at 7PM

Wednesday, October 24 - Part I at 1PM and Part II at 3PM

I'll let you know the WilliNet times when they are scheduled.

The entire film runs about 4 hours (Part 1 and Part II are each 2 hours long) and was shot between 2008 - 2010.

Hope you'll tell friends and those you know who may be interested. Let me know if you get a chance to view it!

All the best,

Sharon
