Jason and Brooke Evans are taking a summer road trip
Along the way, we will be documenting the lives of a variety of intentional/missional Christian communities and the food they eat. Our desire is to be able to eventually compile a book with recipes and stories from the lives of these communities. We hope that this book will become a practical tool for those starting communities with stories that inspire and recipes for preparing simple, healthy, inexpensive meals for large groups.
We are also going to be doing some speaking and cooking classes along the way. These opportunities will help us off set the cost of gas and hopefully allow us the chance to connect with folks we normally would not have been able to.
Justice Kitchen
During some of our stops we will also be partnering with churches and faith communities to do what we are calling, Justice Kitchen. The basic idea of Justice Kitchen is this: You invite 10 to 20 of your best friends over for dinner. No one knows what is going to be served for dinner, not even us. When we get into town, we will shop for locally grown and sold food in order to prepare a healthy and just meal for you and your friends. During the cooking demonstration, Brooke and I will address issues such as your health, the health of your community and health for the world. We will talk about the current, global food crisis and how you eat can help change things. And we will also discuss how food and spirituality intersect. Each attendee will walk away with a full stomach, new insights, recipes and hand-outs.
