Today's Sustainable Feast in the Garden of Eden

in food •  7 years ago  (edited)

It is another fabulous day in the Garden of Eden, and we are giving thanks for more than enough of everything in this abundant life of freedom!  


We made a delicious feast for our full time volunteers today on our indoor wood burning stove rather than on the rocket stoves of our sustainable outdoor kitchen. We stayed nice and toasty, had a fantastic meal, AND heated water for showers for super sustainable efficiency. As usual, there was more than enough food for everyone, and we are happy to share our abundance with you!

Today we made a delicious and eclectic feast!



A key to sustainability is using what you have in abundance, so today we made the things we have in abundance! It was a fun meal with more than enough food for everyone.

We started with our daily garden salad. We topped a bed of greens with cucumbers, onions, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, and crumbled blue cheese. It was delicious and nutritious, especially when dressed with a splash of our homemade vinegar. 



We made a pizza today! We topped a wheat crust with tomato sauce, shredded mozzarella and parmesan, pepperoni, sausage, and onions, and baked it over the stove top until crispy and melty. 



Then we prepared rotisserie chicken! This is a whole chicken rubbed with herbs, garlic, salt, pepper, and butter, and roasted until golden brown, tender, and juicy.



For more vitamins and awesome flavor, we sautéed a pan of mushrooms and onions. We love mushrooms year round, but they are especially beneficial in the winter time to provide a super dose of vitamin D.



We rounded out the meal with a few leftover servings of our delicious Mexican lasagna and some frittata with basil pesto and roasted tomatoes! 



Even though these delicious dishes might not classically be served together in a single meal, we can do whatever we want! They are some of our favorite foods, and most importantly they are SUSTAINABLE!



Food is important, and we hope to inspire people to really take time to eat, enjoy it, and share it with someone you love. We also hope to inspire more and more sustainable practices in regards to food! 



We do all of our cooking over fire, using wood that was otherwise destined to end up in a landfill! This is our indoor wood burning stove in action - it cooks our food, warms our communal space, and heats water for hot showers all at the same time!

Food is an honored & elemental part of our daily life in community. You can learn more about our unique, intimate, and super sustainable relationship with food here!




Photos are original to our epic feast and highlight just a taste of the thousands upon thousands of free meals we share every single year. 




We are happy & grateful to share our abundance - there's more than enough of everything! If you or anyone you know wants or needs food, contact us - we will give you free food, no questions asked. We make this offer every single day, because we are here to help one and all.

This means that when you upvote our posts, you are increasing the value of your own $teem wealth as well! 




Do you believe our efforts are valuable and beneficial for the world? 

Can you match our annual contributions of feeding 40,000, saving 350,000 pounds of trash from the landfill, achieving a negative carbon footprint, providing a safe space for families and children to thrive, and educating hundreds of thousands of people for free??
