St. Andrew Presbyterian Church/Earth Charter Indiana

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Come celebrate Indy's healthy farms, families, and locally-grown foods at our eighth monthly Local Food Challenge Potluck The Indianapolis Food, Farm, and Family Coalition and Earth Charter Indiana invite you to St. Andrew Presbyterian Church which is also home to Earth Charter Indiana. Come share a meal together and view a clip from the movie Renewal with a small group discussion after. We will show the clip around 7:45 pm. John Gibson, Executive Director of Earth Charter Indiana, is co-founder of the Indianapolis Food, Farm and Family Coalition. The coalition has become a project of the organization. In the spring of 2008, Earth Charter Indiana started the Local Food Challenge and sought state residents to commit to eating 50% of their food from local sources during the summer months of June, July, and August. In the end, we had over 100 individuals sign the online pledge and inspired the first Local Food Potluck in 2010. Hope to see you all for the first local food potluck of the New Year!
