SUSTAINABLE ALASKA SPRING SOCIAL

Description

It’s time for the FIRST ANNUAL SUSTAINABLE ALASKA SPRING SOCIAL brought to you by Common Ground Alaska!

Friday, May 5th at the Big Lake Lions Club from 6-8 PM

We are SO very excited to invite you all to join us and participate in this exciting event! One of our core values is building community – and what better way to build community than to gather around tables and share plants, seeds, and food?!?!

Here’s the plan for the evening:

POTLUCK DINNER:
Potluck dinner – bring your favorite dish to share with the group. We will eat around 6, so if you’re coming for the meal, plan to be there by 6 with your dish. Flatware, utensils, and drinks are provided.

You might be asking: what dish should you bring? Anything you’d like! Bring your grandma’s favorite baked beans or pulled pork from the hog you butchered last year or a dessert with Alaska berries – whatever you wish! We will provide tags so you can put the name of your dish, any special dietary specifications, and your name.

PLANT/SEED EXCHANGE:
If you would like to sell plants and seeds or have some to give away, please bring a table to set up by your car in the parking lot. If the weather is icky, we will provide tables inside for you. I will send an email out the evening prior with our final decision on how it will go.

How will the plant/seed exchange work? You get to choose what you charge, or you can even offer things for free – or for barter! It’s entirely between you and your potential customer. 🙂 Feel free to bring any extra plants you have or even seeds that you don’t need!

GUEST SPEAKER:
We also have a guest speaker coming who will surely be a delight to listen to and glean from. More information coming on that soon. 🙂

We are looking forward to getting to know each of you as we build this amazing Sustainable Alaska community. See you on the 5th!
