“As winter winds down, we all need some inspiration, great food, and good conversation,” said Veggies to Table, in a news release.
 
Veggies to Table’s Virtual Supper Club speaker series aims to create community connections, educate, and invigorate in this time of uncertainty and, for many, isolation.
 
Each Zoom event will feature topics including seed-starting, sustainable living, native plants, and pollinators. Celebrate local food, engage in lively conversation, and meet new people.
 
Participants will prepare a themed meal using as much local food as possible – proving that local eating is possible year-round even in Maine. Meals will be eaten together online while listening to the speaker. Prizes will be awarded for theme, use of local foods, and best photos and recipes and include Reny’s, Crossroad Coffee and Oxbow beer gift cards, items from du Jardin and Coppertail Farm along with copies of Hostile Valley Living’s Book and more.
 
The next event is March 16, at 6 p.m., with Kirsten Lie-Nielsen, of Hostile Valley Living, who will discuss sustainable living in Maine, seed-starting and growing food for year-round abundance.
 
Irene Brady Barber, of Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, will speak April 14, at 6 p.m., with “Native Edibles for Your Garden to Attract Pollinators.” 

Tickets are $15 for students, teachers, and essential workers, and $35 for others. Early registration and bundled discounts available. All proceeds go toward feeding community members living in the crisis of hunger.
