Description: 

At the same time as the new documentary of Valentin Thurn, „10 billion” (working title), a new assembly named “Taste of Heimat” (taste of homeland) will come into being. The documentary offers an insight of innovative approaches on how food sovereignty might be guaranteed in the future by returning to a mainly local and regional food production. Obviously, the impact of our eating behavior on the food system is enormous and every one of us actively has a say in what kind of production will dominate our future agriculture. ‘Taste of Heimat’ aims to put this belief into practice since it intends to simplify the return to local and regional food. The assembly can be understood as a direct link between food production, distribution and consumption. It offers different kinds of education, workshops and networking. Furthermore, “Taste of Heimat” provides a - same-titled - internet platform which animates the consumer to buy local and regional food, preferably straight from the farmer and facilitates direct marketing to local and regional food producers and distributors.
