Showing of FOOD INC.

Please join us on Monday April 18th at 6pm for a viewing of Food Inc. as well as information & discussion on local farmers markets, where to find organic foods, and St. Cloud community gardens.

Food Inc. exposes the truth about our nation's food industry and the control corporations have over our food supply, often times putting profit ahead of consumer health, the American farmer, the safety of workers and our environment. It is a must see and you will likely never feel the same about your food again.

If you'd like more information check out the Food Inc. website. http://www.foodincmovie.com/

This event will be held at Saint Cloud State University in the Atwood Center. See you there!

Local Farmers Markets & Grocers

RESONATE!

   3. To correspond closely or harmoniously

Hello Everyone! A collective decision has been made to change the format of this site a bit, as you may have noticed the title and address change. Our goal is to bring to the St. Cloud area an awareness of the many issues and challenges that we face as a community, both locally and beyond. We have an amazing group of people contributing to this site that will be posting about many topics. We will be keeping you up to date and informed on things such as the Zeitgeist Movement, The Green Band, the Pride Movement and much much more. We hope that this will be an outlet for those of you who want to get involved in creating change to see how it can be done and specific ways that you can get involved. It became apparent to us that we can make a larger impact by "joining forces" and supporting each other as a group. After all, when it really comes down to it, we all want to see positive change in our community and we feel that utilizing a power in numbers approach can be the best way to get information out about different movements and causes. Expect to hear a lot more about Resonate and don't forget to keep checking back to see what's new. This will also be a fantastic resource to show not only the problems we face but the solutions to and effect we have on them. We will be adding a calendar feature shortly to keep our readers posted on any and all upcoming events in our community.

So, tell your friends, mom, neighbor, everybody! Change is constant, we have the power to make a decision as a community as to what that change is....so let's make it a positive one!

Thanks,

J.
