🚫21+ Only

Bring your simmering thoughts and whatever you have “on your plate”, we’ll share both!
This gathering is free and open to all.
We may meet more than once a month, depends on a few things - join us and broaden your understandings and your palate.

This is a series of community gatherings we’re calling Food for Thought Circles (a place to feed your body and your mind).
Whether it’s a dream you had, a book you’re reading, a project you’re passionate about, or a question that won’t leave you alone, bring 1–3 “thoughts” you’ve been chewing on, and come ready to listen, share, and reflect in a banquet of conversations.
Together, we’ll create a menu of insight, connection, and conversation for all to feast.

🌀 How it works:
• Arrive, get food/drinks and thoughts and settle in your seat.
• Write 1–3 ideas/thoughts onto cards as potential prompts for discussion (we’ll provide materials)
• Add your ideas and any snack (optional) to the share circle (ask of host)
• We’ll pull a few thought cards as prompts for the day’s deeper conversation
• The group reflects together: Why does this matter to you, to society, to the Earth? We will explore potential connections between various subjects and focuses.
• We close with shared sweet morsels and each person’s takeaway (“What are you putting in your metaphorical ((and literal)) doggie bag?”)
• To keep everyone on the same page and at the same level, ALL attendees are asked to participate in discussions.

This is a space for connection, not debate.
For enrichment, not lecturing.
Come curious open-minded and thoughtfully hungry.
Leave full-filled.
Be as you are.

🧺 What to Bring:
• Water to keep your mouth from drying out, we will be talking!
• Optional dessert to share (something small size/portions)
• A thought, idea, dream, or passion you want to explore with others
• A willingness to listen and be listened to

🪞Themes we might explore:
• What’s eating you? Conversations you’ve had, or wanted to have….
• What’s feeding you? Dreams, Books, Life, Worries, Hopes
• What’s on your plate (mentally, emotionally, or literally)? What’s going on in your life? What are you going through? What’s on your mind?
• How are our ideas part of the extended web of life? How is everything connected….?
• No topics are off limits. Love, Mental Health, Life, Death, etc.
