Free Cooking Event!

Meditation Museum in Silver Spring will host a Cooking for Peace session, with special guest Erica Meier.

Saturday, November 8th, 1:30 pm – 3:00 pm
We all know the phrase you are what you eat. But, we usually just think of the physical effects of food on our health. Food influences our mental, spiritual and physical well-being, and the societies in which we live. Join us and learn how food choices and food preparation affect our emotions, integrity and health and the ethical impact on animals and the environment. Workshop includes a discussion and vegan food preparation. Come learn and taste with us.
