Borne through a collaborative effort led by StarkFresh, each month a documentary film will be shown featuring a topic (food access, wellness, obesity, community activism, etc.) that is currently impacting our greater Stark County community.  In addition, prior to the start of the film, there will be an educational component with a guest speaker briefly talking about local community initiatives taking place to address the issues portrayed in that month’s film.
