Join our monthly Potluck Event where we share a meal, build connection, and learn how foods can impact breast cancer survival
About this Event

Building Healthy Communities Summit Medina hosts its monthly potluck with a "Let's Beat Breast Cancer" educational event, including a cooking demonstration. We'll share delicious foods prepared by you and also learn about foods that are shown to reduce breast cancer risk and support survival.

This is a great opportunity to meet new friends and community while sharing a potluck lunch and learning about the Power Foods. Participants will leave with recipes and handouts.

Bring a low-fat, minimal-oil, plant based dish to share as we gather for connection and conversation! PLEASE REGISTER (event is free)

We aim to be zero waste so your help in making this happen is appreciated. We recommend bringing your own water bottle, plates and flatware.

Jane Barnett will present this Building Healthy Communities / Food for Life program. She is a Plant-Based Nutrition Professional through the T. Colin Campbell, Center for Nutrition Studies, a Licensed Food for Life Instructor through PCRM, and a graduate of the Rouxbe Culinary School in Professional-Plant Based Cooking. Jane is on a mission to help individuals learn to incorporate practices that generate health and well-being through cooking, composting, and compassion.
