Don’t Put That in Your Mouth
March 27th, 2013
Join OUT for Sustainability for a Sustainability and Society Series (SaSS) Social featuring queer perspectives on sustainable food and agriculture. “Don’t Put That in Your Mouth” will be a social mixer where we’ll lightly facilitate conversation to dive into our values around what we put in our mouth. To make sure we keep it fun, we’ll have snacks and drinks on hand and hosts to make the introductions that create fascinating conversation.
