Dear Friends,

It is with deep appreciation to those who have helped along the way that we announce the completion of the film What's On Your Plate?! After much hard work with our editors, sound-mix and color correction teams, we now have a finished product!

We've just returned from a smashing premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival in the Culinary Cinema Program. The film screened before an audience of children, teachers and families from the John F. Kennedy School, an American school in Berlin. The audience was wonderfully enthusiastic, and the children had many questions for Sadie and Safiyah. After the screening, everyone enjoyed a seasonal vegetarian meal prepared by some of the kids who worked with German Chef Alf Wagenzink.

What's On Your Plate? had a fabulous debut! And Sadie and Safiyah have some new German pen pals.

Many people are approaching us to share the film with their communities, but the film will not be available until we determine our U.S. premiere, which will be soon. We look forward to showing the film in hundreds of community settings and will keep you posted about when we can start doing that.

In the meantime we're working with our partner organizations to provide wider access to healthy, affordable and sustainably grown food for kids and families.
