[All] Pulse Potluck Supper/Fundraiser

[water.lulu at yahoo.ca]

The Earth has a heartbeat.
Take its Pulse.

A Night of Food Justice, Climate Action and Community

Join Community Kitchen and Divest Waterloo to celebrate the approach of summer and the UN International Year of Pulses (beans, peas, lentils and chickpeas) at the Waterloo Region Community Pulse Potluck* Dinner! It is a night to acknowledge the realities of climate change, while celebrating the possibilities of addressing it through food and solidarity.
It is also our opportunity to introduce you to KW’s newest co-operative community kitchen.

KW's own Alysha Brilla and The Raging Grannies will be performing! 

We will also be raising funds to support the Chippewas of the Themes First Nation's legal battle over Line 9.

Sunday 6pm
Co-operative Community Kitchen (located in St. John the Evangelist Church)
23 Water Street North (Map)
Kitchener, ON N2H 5A4

Come for thought provoking dinner conversations, entertainment, and of course down-to-earth food that is still out-of-this-world! Local activists in food and climate justice will be joining us to animate discussions. Bring your friends and imagine all of the possibilities that this co-operative kitchen holds for our community! Test drive the kitchen with your favourite vegan or vegetarian dish.

A selection of local restaurants and bakeries will be sharing delicious vegan and vegetarian food, so while we welcome your contribution to this shared feast, there is no obligation to prepare and share food to join in the fun.

* You know a potluck as a gathering where each guest contributes a dish of food that is shared with the group. But this is a potluck with a twist!

In order to respect public health regulations, we ask that you please assemble your contribution in our fabulous new commercial kitchen. The kitchen will be open from 2 until 6, and you are welcome to join us during this time to prepare your dish in advance (we have lots of fridge space). Or come right before 6 for “just in time” food prep.
