Posted by Marissa Grossman on October 6, 2008 at 4:55 pm
Categories:

Energize your Life!  Join other youth organizations in the BLAST network for a great day of learning and sharing.  Experience the union of local agriculture and renewable energy at Seeds of Solidarity Farm and Education Center, which runs on solar electricity, uses bio-diesel in vehicles and employs no-till methods and solar greenhouses to ‘grow food everywhere’ and reduce fossil fuels.  Seeds of Solidarity staff and youth in their SOL (Seeds of Leadership) Garden project will co-host this BLAST gathering with The Food Project staff and youth leaders.

The day will include:

  • Engaging activities to get to know other individuals and organizations, including:
    • A “Food Footprint” activity
    • An “Open Space” dialogue
    • A collaborative work project where you’ll learn how to transform cardboard into fertile soil
  • An interactive tour of Seeds of Solidarity
  • A delicious, local, trash-free lunch

Registration fee: $4.00
