The Power of Community

Have you ever wondered what large-scale sustainable agriculture will look like in a post-petroleum world? Since the early 1990's when the Soviet Union ceased to subsidize it, Cuba has been living that reality. The very interesting organization Community Solutions has produced an enlightening documentary on Cuba's experience forging a sustainable agriculture without oil entitled The Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil.

The Baltimore Food and Faith Project will be screening The Power of Community Wednesday, June 16 at 7 p.m. at Divinity Lutheran Church, 1220 Providence Road, Towson, MD 21286. For more information, see the poster here. For more information, please call (410) 502-5069, or write the Baltimore Food and Faith Project at angsmith@jhsph.edu.
