February is the month to focus on hearth health and in that spirit the newly formed organization, Mindful Nourishment Matters, is hosting a free screening of the film Forks Over Knives at the Knoxville Public Library.

The film puts the idea of food as medicine to the test, following everyday Americans with chronic conditions as they seek to reduce their dependence on medications and learn to use a whole-food, plant-based diet to regain control over their health and their lives. 

The goal of this inaugural Mindful Nourishment Matters gathering is an accessible event to present new ideas around healthy eating and prompt community conversation about our food choices and how they affect our health, local economy and agricultural practices.

Doors at 5pm, Film starts at 5:30pm. Short discussion afterwards. Free event and light local, healthy snacks will be provided!
