Now\, more than ever\, we need avenues for conversation and support as we do the work of caring for creation. Whether you are new to the environmental conversation or a seasoned expert there is a place for you around the table.  \nHow do we talk about climate change and the environment with others in a way that brings unity instead of polarization? \nKatharine Hayhoe\, a Christian climate scientist\, says that talking with others is the most important thing we can do to fight climate change! What do you think? \nWe’ll be watching some of Katharine Hayhoe’s videos\, and talking about how to have conversations about climate change with others. \nJoin us for dessert\, coffee and tea at CMU’s Centre for Resilience \nRSVP by [modal_text_link name=”contact” class=”” id=””]Clicking Here[/modal_text_link] by Feb 6 \n[modal name=”contact” title=”RSVP Here” size=”large” background=”” border_color=”” show_footer=”yes” class=”” id=””]\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n \n RSVP Here\n\n \n Sorry\, this form is not available. \n \n \n \n \n[/modal]\nLocation: Centre for Resilience – 500 Shaftesbury Blvd. 4th Floor   \nPlease bring a $3-$5 donation to cover the cost of the food.  URL:https://arocha.ca/event/cafe-a-rocha-climate-conversations/ LOCATION:Centre for Resilience\, 500 Shaftesbury Blvd\, Winnipeg\, Manitoba\, R3P 2N2\, Canada CATEGORIES:Manitoba,Winnipeg ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://arocha.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/IMGP0582.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20200201T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20200201T170000 DTSTAMP:20260430T022050 CREATED:20191105T222253Z LAST-MODIFIED:20191213T221752Z UID:28777-1580565600-1580576400@arocha.ca SUMMARY:Cooking With Stewing Hens (Surrey\, BC) DESCRIPTION:Learn about the lost thrifty art of cooking stewing hens.Two generations ago\, most individuals living on farms ate their laying hens when they stopped laying. Normal meat birds are slaughtered at 14 weeks of age. They are young and tender. However\, laying hens live for 1-3 years\, meaning special care is needed to soften their meat and make it more palatable. In a world of increasing interest in food security\, stewing hens are a great source of protein\, and are a much cheaper option for chicken meat than regular meat birds. \nIn this workshop you will learn \n\nAbout the history of stewing hens\,\nHow to break down a bird into its parts (a transferable skill for meat birds too)\,\nHow to use all the parts of the bird\,\nAnd several methods for cooking stewing hens.\n\nYou will also have the opportunity to sample stewing hen meat prepared in several ways\, learning on your tongue how different cooking methods affect the bird on your palate. \nIncluded in the cost of the workshop is one stewing hen that participants will take home. \nAbout the Instructor\nJenn Cline is an amalgamate farmer-chef\, the perfect individual to guide you \n \nthrough a farm to fork cookery lesson on stewing hens. As a Farmer with six years of experience\, she knows that not all chickens are created equal\, and that caring about the chicken you eat means caring about the plants\, soil and watershed that grow your chicken. As a trained Chef with eight years of professional cooking experience\, she knows a thing or two about transforming quality raw ingredients into a feast for our senses and nourishment for our minds and bodies. She has not cooked just a chicken or two\, but hundreds\, spending hours honing her butchery and cooking skills. Jenn loves being an intermediary between the fields and people’s palates\, and hopes to inspire all her class participants to become more mindful eaters. \n \nPowered by Eventbrite URL:https://arocha.ca/event/cooking-with-stewing-hens-surrey-bc/ LOCATION:A Rocha’s Brooksdale Environmental Centre\, 1620 192 St\, Surrey\, British Columbia\, V3Z 9V2\, Canada CATEGORIES:Brooksdale ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://arocha.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/sVra9XR8QIyVNiKmH1bs_FK1A2330.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20200201T093000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20200201T120000 DTSTAMP:20260430T022050 CREATED:20191212T025345Z LAST-MODIFIED:20191212T025345Z UID:29255-1580549400-1580558400@arocha.ca SUMMARY:Restoration Saturday (Surrey\, BC) DESCRIPTION:Restoration Saturdays are a great way to learn practical skills in creation care.

DESCRIPTION:Christians\, Climate Science\, and Our Culture: Can we Agree? \n5:30 pm: Pizza Supper – the Canadian Scientific and Christian Affiliation (CSCA) will provide free pizza and drinks. We are asking A Rocha friends to bring along a ready-to-serve small salad or small dessert if you are able to. \nPlease e-mail Kris Nanda at kkhnanda@hotmail.com to confirm your attendance so we know how much pizza to order. \n7:00 pm: Video presentation by Katherine Hayhoe \nMounting scientific evidence clearly documents the risks posed by climate change to the poor\, the needy\, and other vulnerable populations\, the very people Christians are called to love. As the scientific evidence builds\, however\, so does the vocal opposition to this evidence: in Canada\, the U.S.\, Australia and the U.K. Much of the disagreement comes from political and religious conservatives. Why is climate change so polarizing to these communities? What makes it so hard to comprehend and accept? Combining basic tenets of the Christian faith with recent findings from the areas of psychology\, sociology\, and climate science\, Hayhoe will discuss potential reasons for these disagreements and the role that shared values may play in moving us forward past these barriers. \nKatherine Hayhoe is a professor and Director of the Climate Science Centre at Texas Tech University. Time Magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people in 2014. She was recently named a Champion of the Earth by the United Nations and is the Climate Ambassador for the World Evangelical Alliance. Katherine was interviewed on CBC Radio’s The House last Saturday. Listen to the CBC interview at: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/thehouse/connecting-with-people-the-quest-for-common-ground-on-climate-change-1.5401156 \nLocal Panel: Following the video\, three local people will give brief responses: \nAnthony Siegrist\, pastor of Ottawa Mennonite Church\, holds a PhD in Theology and is currently enrolled in the Master of Science in Environmental Sustainability program at the University of Ottawa. \nJohn Cook\, has a PhD in physics\, and worked as a research officer at the National Research Council in solid state physics. \nKarri Munn-Venn\, is the Senior Policy Analyst with Citizens for Public Justice. \nDiscussion and Questions: There will be time for discussion and questions following the brief responses by the panel members. \nSponsorship: In addition to A Rocha and the CSCA\, this event is also sponsored by Ottawa Christian Reformed Campus Chaplaincy\, the Graduate and Faculty Christian Fellowship at the University of Ottawa\, and the Laurentian Leadership Centre.

Ever wonder if the bath and beauty products you daily use on your body are good for you and the environment.

Take charge of your health by taking charge of your beauty. \nThrough easy to follow\, step-by-step\, hands-on instruction\, you will learn: \n\nAbout the basic ingredients needed to to make your all-natural cosmetics\,\nHow to make hand soap\,\nHow to make face wash\,\nAnd how to make bath salts.\n\nYou’ll take home each of the things you make (a $25 retail value) as well as the recipes\, so you can make more whenever you run out. \nAll products can be made scent neutral for those with sensitivities or allergies. Your home made cosmetics will be made from all natural ingredients\, free of additives\, preservatives or other chemicals that can be harmful for health and the environment. \nAbout the Instructor\nNorma Hogan first learned about the basic principles of natural cosmetics at a David Suzuki Foundation Queen of Green workshop over ten years ago. Since then she has been making her own cleaning and cosmetic products\, selling them and other green products under her brands Ahimsa Green Products\, as well as leading workshops. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge in this fun and simple workshop! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nPowered by Eventbrite URL:https://arocha.ca/event/natural-cosmetics-beauty-workshop-surrey-bc/ LOCATION:A Rocha’s Brooksdale Environmental Centre\, 1620 192 St\, Surrey\, British Columbia\, V3Z 9V2\, Canada CATEGORIES:Brooksdale ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://arocha.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/natural-cosmetics-3397277_1920.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20191130T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20191130T123000 DTSTAMP:20260430T022051 CREATED:20190919T220345Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190919T220345Z UID:28511-1575104400-1575117000@arocha.ca SUMMARY:Restoration Saturday (Surrey\, BC) DESCRIPTION:Join A Rocha’s Brooksdale conservation team for a morning of habitat restoration and enhancement.\nGet your hands dirty planting native trees and shrubs\, removing exotic invasive vegetation (such as Himalayan blackberry or English Ivy)\, building fences to keep livestock away from watercourses\, creating new wetlands and much more. \nThe team will meet at the A Rocha Brooksdale Environmental Centre (1620 192 St – Surrey\, BC) and will travel to the restoration site from there.
