Pathways of Peace: Food as Relationship—Autumn Table Retreat at Prairiewoods (in person)
September 6 @ 6:30 pm – September 7 @ 4:00 pm CDT
$95 – $175
Harvest is just beginning! Nurturing body and spirit, autumn harvest foods play a significant role in fostering peace at personal, community and global levels. Drawing on wisdom of mystics, saints and poets, let’s honor the abundance of nature and how these foods provide an opportunity to transform our relationship with food at the individual, community and global levels. Come celebrate and reflect on new ways of connecting with how our food is grown and why this matters for personal and planetary health.
