The Spirituality of Food

There’s a conference this weekend in California on the Spirituality of Food. Here’s the details (HT: Allyson):

We’re learning more and more about the ways in which our eating habits impact the natural world and contribute to global warming — check out the LA Times this morning! — but the connections between food, spirituality, planet care, and economic justice go even farther. Join PCU and our partner organizations for a unique afternoon of interactive learning and action when we tie it all together.

April 26, 2:00-5:30
Resource tables and registration open at 1:30
Simple communal dinner at 5:00
