September 11, 2010
(second Saturday of every month)
EarthSave Louisville will be hosting our monthly potluck event at a NEW LOCATION: the United Crescent Hill Ministries located at 150 State Street (on Frankfort Ave). Use the parking lot and on-street parking. Look for the EarthSave banners.
EarthSave Louisville's Phytophile* Potluck-- Saturday, September 11th, 6-8 p.m.
Come for the food; stay for the inspiration.
* Phytophile: Plant-loving
6 p.m. POTLUCK: Bring a plant-based dish (cooked or raw) , your
recipe to share, and your own utensils/plates. The serving table is always "The Bomb".
7 p.m. PROGRAM: Health and Wellness "State of the City Stew".
The City of Louisville obtained $8 million from the Federal Government to "fix" some food problems in our fair city. We will hear of their proposal, their results so far, their prognosis for the future, and how we can get involved in several different ways. Some tax dollars go to good things--Let's find out exactly what they are doing! We can do things collectively in a better way than individually--and the government is the best representation of this belief/hope/fact. A key staff person from the Health Dept will be giving a multimedia presentation; they are capable of "delivering the goods", believe me! (...See if you don't agree...) Read from their website and come with probing questions involving the word "meta-analysis"--PLEASE!
Announcements will be given (pertaining to healthy food and behavior change), and a general ruckus and melee will result from raffling with a high-win ratio.
8 p.m.-10 p.m. MIX, MINGLE and MUSIC: Immediately after the speaker, there will be a mixer and ice-breaker so that connections, relationship strengthening and co-affiliations "just happen". Tons of on-topic books are naturally in the Reader's Corner; someone to be reading a favorite, aloud. Guitars and piano jamming in the mainroom. Discussing of future Earthsave "You know we oughta..." topics in the kitchen during clean up. View a recent film about food and/or the food industry...and our health. Afterparties can always be held at the Zen Tea House (2246 Frankfort Ave) just up the street; they offer complementary tea tastings and are open until 11pm--Let's make it a habit!
LOCATION: the United Crescent Hill Ministries located at 150 State Street (on Frankfort Ave). (This is very close to I-64 and the bus line; if transportation is an issue, contact Earthsave Louisville to arrange a $1 ride service/car pool connection.)
2010 Per Person Cost: $3 with a dish to share or $8 without a dish to
share
Kids under 5 are free. Bring a complete place-setting with utensils for a price reduction of $1 per person
EVERYTHING ALWAYS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, ABSOLUTELY!
The monthly EarthSave Louisville Vegetarian Potluck is always held on the 2nd Saturday at 6 p.m. Mark your calendars!
"Eat and Learn!"
The potluck event is a great way to swap recipes, meet like-minded
people, and hear the latest news on this cutting-edge
lifestyle. There's always lots of delicious food. Ingredients are displayed. Bring copies of your recipe if you wish. Bring your camera or pen as culinary memory jogger, try to find the creator of your favorite dish and thank them. Bring your business cards and little black book. "Meet, greet, and eat!"

"Veggie Table"
Cooking Class
"Walking on Eggshells"
Click for details
The huge recall on Salmonella-carrying eggs is ridiculous, especially when we don't need eggs for nutrition nor as binder for cooking. There are substitutes and replacers for eggs. Come and hear all about it--and see it, and try it. At 4:00pm on Saturday, September 11th to the United Crescent Hill Ministry kitchen (150 State Street, LVL) Whitney Kerzinger will be explaining, demonstrating, answering questions, and engaging all participants. Whitney is currently a U of L student in the Masters of Public Health Program--and Public Health is in the kitchen indeed! Beginners and experts both welcome.
Our guarantee: to be easy, healthy, and mind-expanding. Prepare to be inspired. See this! Come every month from 4:00 pm to 5:30 pm to watch and learn from a rotating line of proficient cooks that can show you how to be successful, healthy, and savvy in the kitchen on a budget with little or no incoming skills, while maintaining a fully-plant-based diet--whether cooking for 6 or alone. This event is free, open to the public and awesome (A $1 fee for food expenses is optional). There's always a place for those who want to learn.
RSVP to 502.299.9520 or louisville@earthsave.org
