Stone Soup Slow Foods Week!

A Stone Soup Slow Foods Week! 


Event #1: Saturday at the Farmers Market 

What: We are gathering to learn how to approach local food purchasing in a faith-based, relational manner...and to see what the Holy Spirit has to teach us through getting to know those who grow food in our own area. 
Where: Meet at Columbus UMC (76 N Peak St, Columbus, NC 28722) 
When: Saturday, July 16th, at 9:30am  
Bring: Reusable bags and cash for the vendors 



Event #2: Cooking Together on Sunday Evening 
What: We will bring the food gleaned from the farmers market the day before (and anything else you have on hand...particularly from your gardens) and we will creatively cook together in the spacious and well equipped church kitchen. 
Where: Columbus UMC (76 N Peak St, Columbus, NC 28722) 
When: Sunday, July 17th, at 4:30pm
Bring: Ingredients for a dish of your own to share or ingredients to combine into a spontaneous collaborative dish. It's very informal and meant to be playful... don't get nervous about preparation. 



Event #3: Slow Food Italian Night at the Saluda Welcome Table 

What: We will meet at Saluda UMC as usual for the Welcome Table where Frances Fairey and Lena Connor will have prepared a special Sicilian meal, followed by the screening of Amuri: Sacred Flavors of Sicily a short, 30-minute documentary that Lena produced on Sicilian festivals and the delicious foods prepared for them...a chance to see how another culture approaches food and faith. 
Where: Saluda UMC (153 Greenville St, Saluda, NC 28773) 
When: Meal at 5:30-6:45pm (drop in when you would like); Screening at 7pm 
Bring: Yourself and an appetite!
