The Brantford Master Gardeners Group hopes you can join us to watch this movie!

Michael Pollan, a professor of journalism and a student of food, presents the history of four plants, each of which found a way to make itself essential to humans, thus ensuring widespread propagation. Apples, for sweetness; tulips, for beauty; marijuana, for pleasure; and, potatoes, for sustenance. Each has a story of discovery and adaptation; each has a symbiotic relationship with human civilization. The film tells these stories and examines these relationships.

Refreshments and popcorn will be served!

Come out…join us….enjoy an evening out with fellow gardeners!

Please RSVP Nancy @ 519-753-9931 or email [email protected],
