Local food doc to debut next week

Kenai Local Food Connection will next week host the first public screening of a new documentary, “Nourishing the Kenai.” The free showing will be held Thursday at Kenai Peninsula College, starting at 6:30 p.m.

According to a news release, the documentary was directed and produced by Emrys Eller, and features local farmers, harvesters and food professionals from the central Kenai Peninsula. It runs around 25 minutes.

At the showing, there will be refreshments provided by The Mindful Living Collective, the release says, and the film will be followed by a panel discussion featuring several members of the “local food scene” who are featured.
