Stew & Stories - Saturday October 17

SETI will be hosting an evening of Stew & Stories on Saturday October 17th. We'll be cooking it all up in a giant pot over the fire and serving it at Jack Heppner's "Edgework Place".  Your only admission is an ingredient for the pot (and maybe a couple dollars for the hat). Bring a story about what you've done or tried in your life to transition to sustainability. Dress warm (there'll be a fireplace & shelter too), and bring your preferred beverage. The gathering begins at 4:00pm and ends around 8:00pm. We look forward to seeing you!
