Earthsave Vegan Potluck & Film

Nonprofit educational group Earthsave Baltimore hosts monthly vegan potlucks at Govans Presbyterian Church, 5828 York Road in Baltimore, near Towson. Church is next to the historic Senator Theater. The potlucks are held on the fourth Saturday of each month from 6:00 until 8:30. Mealtime starts promptly at 6:15. WE WILL MEET IN A DIFFERENT ROOM WITH DIFFERENT ENTRANCE THAN USUAL WHILE BUILDING RENOVATIONS CONTINUE. USE THE SAME LARGE PARKING LOT AS ALWAYS. A SIGN WILL BE POSTED NEAR OUR USUAL ENTRANCE TO POINT YOU TO THE ENTRACE ON OPPOSITE SIDE OF BUILDING. This event will feature a viewing “Diet for a New America”, an inspiring and informative 1991 film documentary based on the classic best-selling book of the same title from author John Robbins, who was the heir apparent to the Baskin and Robbins ice cream empire. The film and book do an excellent, well-balanced job of explaining the connection between our food choices and human health, planetary health and sustainability, food safety, and the treatment of animals commonly called livestock. The film makes an excellent introduction to all who are veg/vegan/plant-based curious. We hope you can join us. MONTHLY VEGAN POTLUCKS: The attendance fee is $5. You may RSVP by email at baltimore@earthsave.org, or by voicemail at 410-252-3043. Please also go the event page of the Earthsave Baltimore Facebook group to invite friends and let them know you plan to attend. Guests are asked to bring a dish made without animal products that will serve 8 or more. If you’d like to bring food just for yourself or attend without eating, the fee is $5. If you wish to enjoy the potluck without bringing a dish, the fee is $20. Also, please consider donating a nonperishable vegan food item to the church's free community meal and food pantry. Suggestions: pasta, rice, barley, canned or dried beans, hot or cold breakfast cereal, nut butter, canned vegetables, canned soup or soup mixes or salad dressing. Be mindful of expiration dates.
