What we'll do:
We'll discuss "Eat Like a Fish" by Bren Smith while sharing a meal inspired by the reading.

Who we are:
Once a library program, we've come together over a shared interest in food and books. Breaking bread over dinner monthly for over 10 years, we're still going strong. We welcome newcomers warmly, always excited to hear new points of view and taste new recipes. The group consists of a range of cooking skills, from the occasional to the obsessive, so don't be intimidated - it's low pressure. There are usually 6 to 12 attendees at a meeting. Don't hesitate to message me (Katie Sherrill) if you have any questions about the group.

About the Book:
Eat Like a Fish by Bren Smith
A genre-defining “climate memoir,” Eat Like a Fish interweaves Smith’s own life—from sailing the high seas aboard commercial fishing trawlers to developing new forms of ocean farming to surfing the frontiers of the food movement—with actionable food policy and practical advice on ocean farming. Written with the humor and swagger of a fisherman telling a late-night tale, it is a powerful story of environmental renewal, and a must-read guide to saving our oceans, feeding the world, and—by creating new jobs up and down the coasts—putting working class Americans back to work.
