Most television shows about food are focused on competition between chefs and recipes for less than healthy meal ideas. The up and coming Food Forward is a refreshing, delicious, health-conscious change in the right direction. Food Forward, while still in the process of being created, is a 13 episode documentary focused on people in the United States who are trying to create more just and sustainable ways for people to think about, acquire, and eat their food.

The different episodes cover all different kinds of food activists from metropolitan areas around the country. From an urban gardener to a nouveau lunch lady, these people are making the changes that need to be made to create a happier and healthier country. We applaud all of the amazing work they have done and continue to do!

Since so many people spend their relaxation time watching television, this could educate a whole new group of people on these extremely important issues. To find out more about this inspiring project visit their website.
