>> Want to see our Top Picks for this week instead?

Thursday, February 16, 2012 - 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm | Cost: FREE*
Ferry Building | 1 Ferry Bldg., San Francisco, CA

Free-range, cage-free, pasture-raised… who really knows the difference? Often the chicken’s home is a far cry from the picture on the carton. Enter Douglas Gayeton, creator of The Lexicon of Sustainability to debunk the labels.

Join CUESA for a discussion with Douglas Gayeton, creator of The Lexicon of Sustainability, a series of “information art” photo collages that teach the vocabulary of sustainable agriculture.

Joining the coversation will be two Ferry Plaza farmers who offer pastured eggs: Marin Sun Farms owner David Evans and Charlie Sowell of Rolling Oaks Ranch. The event will include a screening of “The Story of an Egg,” one of 24 short films that will supplement the Lexicon.

The discussion goes from 6:30 until 8:00. A reception with farmers market refreshments will follow.
