Welcome to Pilgrims State of the Health Education Center. January 2009 marks the opening of what we hope will become a place that thousands of our neighbors will count as the place where they learned about life-changing approaches to achieving optimal health. We have built this center to serve you. Enjoy!
Lecture Events
Food Inc.: An academy award nominated documentary film*:
Co-hosted by Kootenai Environmental Alliance
Date: Wed. Mar. 10, 6pm
Fee: Complimentary
Location: Pilgrim’s Health Education Center
DESCRIPTION: How much do we know about the food we buy at our local supermarkets and serve to our families? Though our food appears the same-a tomato still looks like a tomato-it has been radically and unnaturally transformed. In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation’s food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government’s regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA. Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment.
