In Portland, Food Not Bombs means free vegetarian meals four days a week! We source fresh, mostly organic food, that would otherwise be thrown away and prepare it for the community.
We believe that society and government should value human life over material wealth. Many of the problems in the world stem from this simple crises in values. By giving away free food to people in need in public spaces we directly dramatize the level of hunger in this country and the surplus of food being wasted. We also call attention to the failures of the society to support those within it while funding the forces of war and violence, including the police.

The Anatomy of Human Relationships: Creating Social Sustainability. Trust is created through a willingness to acknowledge and honor the conflicts, resistances, and fears that show up in relationships.

We will conclude with an adaptive learning process.
