Please join the Veg Society of DC Book Club discussion of “The Grammarians” by Cathleen Schine. This meeting will take place online, via zoom.
Laurel and Daphne are identical twins who share an obsession with words. They speak a secret twin tongue as toddlers. As adults in 1980s Manhattan, their verbal infatuation continues, but instead of binding them together, it begins to push them apart.
To participate you must read at least half the book — and RSVP at least two days before the meeting. People who RSVP yes will get the details to join the discussion (the weekend before the meeting). The details will not be posted on meetup.
The VSDC Book Club began meeting online in March 2020 (previously we met in vegetarian restaurants in DC or nearby Maryland or Virginia). We read fiction and nonfiction in alternating months, about any topic. For more information (including everything we have read over 30+ years!) visit: https://vsdc.org/Book-Club

- VSDC Packs Fruits and Veggies for Local Families in NeedCommon Root Farm, Derwood, MD
Have you volunteered at a food bank and cringed as you helped pack foods, including meat and dairy, that don't align with your values? Community FarmShare supports families in need while caring about the health of those they serve and the environment.
Join us at the Community FarmShare Hub to help pack fruits and vegetables grown on local small-scale farms for those lacking access to healthy foods. The bags we (and other volunteers) pack will be distributed to more than 500 families.
We will stand for the entire shift, so wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes. We recommend you bring a water bottle and feel free to bring a light vegan snack. Packing takes place partially outdoors but shaded, so dress for the weather. There is a porta-potty on site.
