Slow Food Phoenix Presents: Truck Farm, The Movie and Local Project, Sunday, March 18, 2012 at 1:00 PM (MT), Phoenix, AZ

Truck Farm was born in Brooklyn, NY in the spring of 2009, when Ian Cheney set out to plant a vegetable garden in the bed of his grandfather's 1986 Dodge pick-up truck.

Slow Food Phoenix is co-sponsoring Truck Farm Phoenix.

Truck Farm Phoenix will hit the road this fall reaching out to schools and youth organizations across the valley teaching kids how fun farming and healthy food can be, engaging them in thinking about where food comes from and getting them excited about growing food themselves. Slow Food USA has partnered to support this project and Slow Food Phoenix is partnering with Truck Farm Phoenix to raise awareness.
