Green Dinners allow people in our local community to come together, not only to enjoy each others company, but also to bring up relevant issues occuring in our neighborhood that we'd like to change. It's a great opportunity to meet people, strengthen friendships, eat nourishing food, and to get in touch with your community.
Green Dinners first initiated with Beyond Today (http://www.beyondtoday.org/).
Partially inspired by the work of Pete Leki and his book, How to Disappear, illustrated by Bobby Sutton. See: http://www.howtodisappear.net/Beyond_Today_Community_Website
I think this is a brilliant idea. After attending a gathering in Houston of local spiritual folks to talk about spirituality facilitated by the book and cards of Amazing Faith of Texas, I thought, why are we not doing this for green issues?
You can also get dialogue cards to inspire conversation around the Amazing Faith of Texas book. Can we collaborate to create cards for green conversations?
What you need to host a green dinner:
- Space to host dinners
- list of neighbors or community members to invite
- invitation
- open attitude
