JOIN EARTHSAVE FOR A VEGAN POTLUCK
Held on the last Saturday every month at the Learning Center of Your
Prescription for Health, 10210 S. Dolfield Rd. in Owings Mills,
EarthSave presents a vegan potluck and presentation. They eat first,
make announcements, vote and present awards for their favorite dishes,
and then have a presentation. This month, on March 29th, EarthSave will
be featuring a screening of the documentary, "Genetic Roulette -
The Gamble of our Lives." This movie discusses a time when the US
government
ignored repeated warnings by its own scientists and allowed untested
genetically modified crops into our environment and food supply; it was
truly a gamble of unprecedented proportions. This award winning documentary
provides compelling evidence to help explain the deteriorating health of
Americans, especially among children. It features commentary from a wide
range of eminent physicians, scientists, policy makers and activist, and
offers a recipe for protecting ourselves and our future.
Dinner guests may choose to either bring a dish without animal products
(to serve 8) plus a $5 donation, pay $12 to enjoy dinner and a
presentation;
or pay $5 for presentation only. Let us know in advance, if possible, if
you
plan to pay for dinner rather than bring a dish. RSVP by calling
410-252-3043,
or emailing Baltimore@Earthsave.org.
