Date/time:
Saturday, September 6 · 10am - 12pm
Doors at 9:50am

Come meet Kofi -- a Collard Green #seed with a beautiful story to tell!

In our children’s book Kofi and the Seed Seekers, Froggie, Toto, and Donkey meet Kofi, who tells them about the journey of #CollardGreens from the West Coast of #Africa to #TurtleIsland , and why this plant is so important for culture and history.

We are inviting you to help us make this story come alive!

What will happen?
Meet Razan the Illustrator of this beautiful book and let's help her to refine the concept. We'll do that with the following activities:

#StoryCircles

Let's read the book together.
Share your memories about food, plants, and cooking.
Talk about what reminds you of home and what your elders or relatives taught you about land and food.

#ArtMaking
Help design Kofi’s friends -- Froggie, Toto, and Donkey.
Create drawings, paintings, and collages inspired by your food stories.
#CulturalCrops Map Wall

Place your food or spice on a big map.
Show where it comes from and how it connects to your life today.

#Food & #Music Sharing
Enjoy snacks together.
Listen to music that celebrates our cultures.
Mini Pop-Up Exhibit
See foods, recipes, and items connected to our stories and history.

Why join us?
Your stories, memories, and art will help shape the Kofi and the Seed Seekers book and our #documentary. Together, we will celebrate food, #migration , and the wisdom of our #cultures.

Language: This event will be delivered in English.
Stroller & wheelchair friendly access. Gymnasium doors will be both left wide open.
Kids must be accompanied & supervised by parent/guardian.

Photos and videos may be taken, if you wouldn't like your photos taken, please let the photographer know. We'll have some processes in place.

@Natteheks That reminds me of one of my all-time favourite childrens' books when I was young, "Nature's Smallest Gravedigger". I still have it, so here are some photos from it.

It is all about the life of the American burying beetle, *Nicrophorus americanus*, and, remarkably, it was one in a whole series by Golden Books called Nature's Sanitation Corps.

The book was written by Victoria Cox and Stan Applebaum with illustrations by Dorothea Barlowe and it was published way back in 1974. My Nana gave it to me in 1977 (yes, I'm old).

I still think it's a marvellous book. I like how all the illustrations are accurate depictions of the animals exactly as they are, not simplified down and sanitized for children.

Book recommendation:
Colors without color
by my friend Anja Groller

The hedgehog Knut has days where he feels numb inside, can't feel anything, colors have no color and the sun doesn't radiate warmth.
Badger Kunibert wants to help his best friend get through those days, understand Knut better and wonders if it might be his fault somehow (it isn't).

The book helps kids understand loved ones that suffer from trauma sequelae.
A grownup should accompany the kid while reading the book.

"Farben ohne Farbe" is the German original title of the book, which I believe was translated in English, but might not have been released that way yet.

Anja is a social- and trauma pedagogue and trauma consultant and studies animal assisted intervention with me.
Her dog Balu is a therapy assistant dog.

I hope the book will help bring more empathy, love and understanding into this world. And color.

My rating: Five hearts!
❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙
