	 <description><![CDATA[
Drawings often begin with feelings, dreams, memories or ideas: stories of ourselves. Experience how sharing your self-stories in imagery opens a path to connection with others. Artistic proficiency is absolutely not required, only the courage to try your hand at drawing from within. It's the process that matters, not the product. <br><br>

Join this hour of free self expression through drawing and discover a new vehicle to create and improve relationships.<br><br>


Susan Fornaro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a Masters Degree in Expressive Arts Therapy. She has a Psychotherapy practice in Canton, MA.<br><br>

She is also a visual artist whose work can be viewed on her website: ( www.fornarofineart.com).

	 <description><![CDATA[ 

We all know fresh produce provides us with a big nutritional bang for our buck. How best can we get it? If you are unfamiliar with Red Tomato (www.redtomato.org), it is a unique non-profit organization with a not so easy goal: help our region's farmers bring their fresh, sustainably-grown produce to the local grocery store at a fair price.<br><br>

 

The Foodie Group is delighted to present Laura Edwards-Orr, Director of Resource Development at Red Tomato in Plainville, to talk about the organization and sustainability issues. Laura began family farm activism at Farm Aid where she managed a national farm crisis hotline, developed a web-based platform to connect thriving farmers with farmers in need, and penned a monthly consumer advice column “Ask Laura.”<br><br>
