Join us for delicious food and lively music at beautiful Carding Brook Farm at our third annual summer community potluck picnic, celebrating local food. We will be looking at sustainable food sources again, this year exploring indigenous foods.  Penobscot Nation Chef Joe Robbins will give an open fire cooking demonstration. The musicians of BAMU will return to play music for everyone. Sponsored by the Brooklin Climate Response Committee, Brooklin Food Corps, and Friend Memorial Library.

What to bring: A dish to share (anything you wish), a list of ingredients in your dish, plates, utensils, blanket or chairs, BYOB. Soft drinks provided.

Optional: Everyone is invited to enter the Local Food Challenge. Bring a dish that includes local native ingredients to enter. Attendees vote for their favorite dish, the winner gets a prize.

Indigenous foods include: blueberries, beans, corn, cranberries, clams, duck, huckleberries, lobster, sunflower seeds, sumac, trout, venison, and lots more. For additional ideas visit the Brooklin Climate Committee webpage.
