Hello, everyone~
Please join us for our first potluck of 2018 and challenge yourself to prepare a dish you’ve never made before to share with the group. (Or – if you’re completely new to plant-based eating – don’t worry about cooking; just bring some fruit.) As always, anyone interested in plant-based eating and nutrition is welcome. Dishes should be whole-food, plant-based (no meat, chicken, fish, dairy or eggs), low in salt, sugar and fat, and without any added oils.

After the meal, we'll bring you up-to-date on the PlantPure Communities’ Restaurant Campaign. Its goal is for every restaurant across the nation to offer at least one plant-based meal with no oil. PlantPure Communities has developed a comprehensive toolkit for the campaign, which includes suggestions on strategy and a number of informative handouts. For recipe inspiration:

We'll meet from 6-8 pm in the large conference room on the second floor of Woodford's Congregational Church, 202 Woodford Street, Portland, Maine.

Look forward to seeing you on Thursday, January 25 at 6 pm!
