We had no volunteers for hosting the potlucks in September or October, so our next potluck will be in November. This is the first Monday in November, so mark your calendars now.

Topic:
We welcome questions and discussion about all WAPF topics. One topic that we plan to discuss is yummy ways to add organ meats to your diet.
Bring Something to Share
Please bring a Nourishing Traditions-style dish and join us for some great food and great conversation! Families and guests are welcome. Please bring enough food to feed the size of your party, as well as your recipe on a 3×5 card or notepaper (Please include your name, and the source of the recipe. Be sure to give them to Lisa at the end of the evening. We are collecting these and plan to eventually compile a recipe book). Written recipes help everyone to learn about how the dish was prepared, and also allow those of us with food sensitivities to avoid potential problems.
Upcoming Potlucks:
Our potluck meetings are regularly scheduled on the second Monday of each month, but we can make changes as needed. We still need volunteers, so let us know if you are able to host an upcoming potluck.
New to all of this?
We would like to encourage everyone to attend. If you are new to this way of cooking, don’t worry, just bring something homemade using real ingredients and you will be fine. Sally Fallon (author of Nourishing Traditions and founder of the Weston A. Price Foundation) reminds us not to become food purists. We are all here to learn. We encourage you to read the Dietary Guidelines and Characteristics of Traditional Diets for a brief overview, and then purchase a copy of the book Nourishing Traditions from the Eugene Chapter for in-depth information and recipes. And if you want to learn more about WAP principles, the potlucks are a great place to ask questions!
RSVP:
We appreciate an RSVP if you think you will be attending so that we have a rough idea of how many people to expect, but feel free to just show up.
