Kindness Picnics to honour our land and promote an organic and
sustainable lifestyle
This weekend, Kindness Picnics in St. Estevam (Jua) and Divar will
highlight our connection with the land. In keeping with the sacred
season of Lent, the Kindness Picnics will honour the earth by promoting
an organic and sustainable lifestyle with informal stalls by local
vendors selling everything from fish to sweets.
There will be activities for the whole family conducted by locals and
other well-known Goans including Clinton Vaz, Victor Hugo Gomes and
Bookworm Library, among others. Story-telling workshops, sale of local
pottery and gaunti organic produce along with community games and
unplugged music will be the other highlights of the event.
Guests are invited to bring a picnic (food, water, a sheet to sit on) to
join in this informal thanksgiving to our land. Also welcome are local
produce including home-grown fruit, vegetables, flowers or hand-made and
organic products like pottery, quilts and products made from recycled
goods or fabrics.
The Picnics will take place from 4.30 pm - 8.30 pm on Saturday 25
February in St. Estevam (Jua) and on Sunday 26 February in Divar. The
Kindness Picnics are being held in conjunction with the Kindness
Manifesto and the 10,000 Acts of Kindness Pledge.
