Lee Fuge from Foodroots has been active in the effort to create a public market in town and will be our guest for the discussion. These lively sessions take place in the store on the first Wednesday of each month, from 7 - 9 pm, and are an opportunity to sample wonderful food, share preparation and growing tips, and engage in great discussions about food and sustainability.

Linda Jane shared this definition with me: deipnosophist - person skilled in dining and table-talk. It was used in plural as the title of a work by Athenaeus (3rd Century) describing long discussions at a banquet.
Please join us as we discuss food and sustainability. We will be coming up with topics for sessions in the Fall which may include: a discussion of cookbooks, such as Alice Water’s The Art of Simple Food, and books about food, such as Michael Pollan’s In Defence of Food, and documentaries, and some hands-on workshops at other locations.
