Nourishing Holidays with Jessica Prentice
The holidays are a particularly stressful and depleting time. Jessica Prentice, a professional chef and founder of Wise Food ways, will discuss nourishing the body and soul from the inside.

Schedule:
Tuesday, December 6th, 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.

Event details:
Part of the reason that the holidays are such a stressful time for many of us is that our society and our physiology are pulling us in opposite directions. In the old fashioned lunar calendars, the holiday season corresponded to The Moon of Long Nights when the winter solstice was approaching. In this presentation, Jessica Prentice will discuss some of the unexpected reasons that we may feel depleted during the holidays, and present practical ways that we can nourish ourselves and our families. She will offer recipes and share a pot of nourishing soup.

Jessica Prentice is a professional chef, food activist, and founder of Wise Food Ways. She teaches classes in the San Francisco Bay Area that empower students to cook nourishing meals based on locally grown, ethically sound ingredients. In March 2006, Chelsea Green Publishing will release Jessica's first book: Full Moon Feast: Food and the Hunger for Connection. Visit her Web site, www.wisefoodways.com, for more information.
