Turtle Rock Farm Booth at Peace Festival 2008
It’s something we are really looking forward to,
having experienced it for the first time last year.
The Peace House in Oklahoma City
is holding its 24th annual Peace Festival,
10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, November 14.
We’ll be one of 50 organizations
that have booths there
to help educate about
and raise support
for social issues,
including (here’s where we come in)
care for creation.
In addition to learning a lot about important issues,
meeting a lot of concerned citizens,
it’s a great place for meaningful holiday shopping
because each group offers homemade crafts, fair trade goods,
as well as calendars and books.
We’ll have photographs and greeting cards with images
from the prairie here at Turtle Rock Farm.
Proceeds help the various social groups in their peace and justice efforts.
There’s a supervised Children’s Activity Area too
with educational activities for children 2 to 12.
And live music.
And food is available.
At the Oklahoma City Civic Center,
Hall of Mirrors,
201 N. Walker.
Admission is free, as are parking meters on the street.
It’s a joyous day.
Plan to stop by our booth and say hello.
