Tableland is a culinary expedition in search of the people, places and tastes of sustainable, small-scale, North American food production. Director Craig Noble argues for the re-localization of food systems, and a return to a fresher, healthier way of feeding ourselves. From the inner city gardens of Chicago to the Napa Highlands and everywhere in between, Tableland showcases the successful production of tasty, local, and seasonal food from field to plate. The people in Tableland are not just farmers and chefs; they are writers, teachers, activists, and leaders of the movement towards a sustainable food system. Tableland focuses on sustainability, economics and marketing, health and taste education, and eating locally and seasonally. With a great deal of recent attention focused on food safety, this subject matter is relevant, and concerns everyone, because we all have to eat. Tableland contrasts our current destructive and dangerous food system with positive working models of a more healthy and sane alternative, with as much focus on delicious food and where it comes from as the economic and ethical forces behind it.
