Join us on the Campus Farm at Matthaei Botanical Gardens for tours, farming, and food followed by a screening of "Farming While Black" (written and directed by Mark Decena), a film about the history of the experiences of Black farmers in the United States, their efforts to reclaim their agricultural heritage, and their work in the food justice and sustainability movement.

Bring a blanket and your comfy clothes, it's time for movie night! Hosted in partnership with the Office of the Vice Provost for Sustainability and Climate Action and the Campus Farm at Matthaei Botanical Gardens, this event offers an opportunity for rest and relaxation to close out Climate Week. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a film about reconnection with cultural roots and local foodways.
