February 29-March 1 — Give “Whirled Peas” a Chance: The Importance of Eating Local
Get it? “Whirled Peas” and “World Peace”! The idea is that these near-homophones may be more closely linked than you’d think. Will eating fresh and local contribute to defusing global conflicts and crises? We’ll see.
When: Friday February 29 6:00 PM to Satuirday March 1 4:00 PM
Where: Indianapolis Peace Institute 1421 N. Central Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46202
The Indianapolis Peace Institute will present another installment in its series of Weekend Workshops on February 29th and March 1st. This workshop will cover issues of urban sustainability and buying local produce. Activities will include a trip to a local Farmer’s market, panels on climate change and food security, and a gourmet meal prepared by a local chef who will use only local produce.
The $20 registration fee includes all meals and accommodations Friday night. If you would like more information about this event, or would like to register, please contact Kate Williams at the Indianapolis Peace Institute: her number is (317) 631-7322.
