Earth Dinner
Tomorrow
is Earth Day, yay! My favorite holiday of the year, hands down.
Earth
Day is the largest secular holiday in the world now.
Have you read ‘Silent
Spring’ yet? Please do if you haven’t. (It’s also worth a re-read.) This brilliant
expose by activist Rachel Carlson was part of the genesis of Earth Day back in the
1960s.
Read below for this great idea for a celebration to honor and thank
Mother Earth for all her blessings.
An
Earth Dinner, where all gather around for a feast of local, seasonal and organic
foods and engage in conversation about food, farming, and our kinship with the
Earth sounds like heaven to me.

We’re
going to have a husband/wife Earth Dinner tomorrow; fresh greens, whole grains,
veggies, and healthy sweets. But I’m planning to host another one this summer,
this time for a larger crowd.
Bless
you, Mother Earth, and thank you for your protection and love.
Namaste.
