The evening is free, for all ages, and donations will be gratefully accepted. Please bring a dish to pass and/or make a donation.. The event space is accessible to wheelchairs. 

Special guests will include the intrepid young crew from Kroka Expeditions, making a stop in Kingston along their paddling journey in large canvas canoes to New York City.  Kroka Expeditions is a non-profit wilderness expedition school, based on an organic farm in New Hampshire, which believes that consciousness and altruistic will can be brought forward through a living relationship with the natural world and by taking our places within the circle of community (Visit Kroka.org for more information). The Kroka crew has chosen to spend their day in the Kingston area helping with agroecological farm tasks at Seed Song Farm as they immerse themselves in an exploration of how culture evolves from an area's unique natural resources. Come help welcome them with the best of our Esopus Valley's food, song, and goodwill in exchange for their camaraderie and tales of adventure! 

Pete Seeger and his Hudson River Sloop Clearwater project were founding inspirations for Seed Song Farm & Center, which offers all in our community hands-on interactions with their unique natural resources, toward building healthy relationships and improved stewardship. As aboard Clearwater, at the farm music is a magical, fun ingredient that nurtures and builds our community, and is a tool for education and activism. Pete was a friend and supporter of the farm project, and played an all-afternoon concert for the farm back when it was Brook Farm in New Paltz at the foot of the Shawangunks.  Farm owner Creek Iversen and other guests will share participatory songs and personal stories weaving together the depth and breadth of Pete's activism and influence in the Hudson Valley and far beyond. Please come share your food, music, stories, and a little work with your hands and hearts at this special event to remember, celebrate, and grow Pete's legacy.

In the early 20th century, extensive research of healthy, isolated communities eating their traditional diet revealed striking differences compared to modern day diets. Compared to today, these healthy traditional peoples consumed 10 times as much fat soluble vitamins (A and D) and 4 times as much water soluble vitamins and minerals. As we have abandoned these traditional foods, and replaced them with modern convenience foods, physical degeneration has followed. Physical issues from crowed teeth, cavities, reproduction difficulties, and degenerative illnesses, along with emotional instability, are the result of nutritional deficiencies not genetics.  Learn the characteristics of traditional diets while sampling some traditional foods.
