What's the best way to eat tomatoes while jogging?
How do sheep dogs learn to herd sheep?

San Francisco's one and only Food & Farm Film Fest offers a place for the food and art worlds of San Francisco to collide. We’re in this to have fun, as well as ask tough questions about our food system. The festival is a celebration of food and farming and film, as well as a challenge to our ideas about how we think about food and farms. All proceeds from the Fest benefit our Cooking Matters program.

 

Many thanks to our partners and sponsors!
