It's a Collaboration!

The Sustainability Film Series began in late 2010.  The Co-op is partnering with Transition Town Ypsilanti and Growing Hope.  From January to August, 2012, we will add another partner: the Ypsilanti District Library.  Find details on the next film by clicking Events in the right sidebar.

The film screening takes place immediately following Growing Hope's monthly Community Potluck in the main room of the downtown Ypsi Library.  The potluck begins at 6pm -- please bring a dish to share!

Our goal is to screen documentary movies on topics that teach about the building blocks of a sustainable and resilient community, such as  sustainably grown food, clean and available water, stable infrastructure, good health, art & soul, economic justice, renewable energy, right livelihood, etc. 

Our 2012 upcoming films include:  

June 8 - Blue Gold - world water wars
July 13 - Gasland - Energy
August 10 - If A Tree Falls - Earth Activism
