Slow Food Asheville Presents a Night of Fatback in Film

April 24 - It's hog time at the Isis on Haywood Road.  Slow Food Asheville presents an evening of film, followed by live music.  You can get to know some of the local farmers, including Allan Benton of Benton's Bacon, in “Preserve,” a film by Blind Pig. Then follow the process of butchering a hog from start to finish in Susannah Patty's film, “Community of a Hog.” 

The programming wraps up with a short film chronicling FEAST, including the program's history and stories from its free cooking classes for children that focus on fresh, affordable local ingredients.  After the hour of film there will be plenty of time to dine, discuss, and groove with your new food-minded friends.  The first screening will begin at promptly at 6:30 PM, so plan to arrive early.

The event will be held at The Isis Restaurant and Music Hall, 734 Haywood Road in Asheville NC
