The Local Food Project at Airlie is again sponsoring the Local Food Film Series this summer at the
Letelier Theater in Georgetown. The LFP works with Washington, DC-based organizations to screen thought-provoking and inspiring films that encourage viewers to dig deeper into the local food movement. These fun and casual events bring together local food fans of all backgrounds to get to know one another, enjoy delicious food and wine, and support community organizations working for local food.
