    Northbrook filmmaker Jeff Spitz discusses food, health, and the environment. Sparked by his son's struggle with foodborne illness, Spitz created Food Patriots, a humorous documentary on nutrition and the people who are leading the good food revolution. Last year Spitz sparked discussion of raising backyard chickens, a topic which is featured in the film.

    This will be the first viewing in Northbrook. A question and answer session will follow the screening.
