Celebrate Eat and Live Green! Join us October 3, 2007 in raising awareness of the importance of eating and living green, especially for San Francisco’s low-income communities.

Celebrity Executive Chef Stephen Simmons (Lucas Skywalker Ranch, Lark Creek Inn, One Market, Bubba’s), Executive Chef Russell Rummer, and Pastry Chef Irene Contreras of the Roots Restaurant are the creative team. This unique event includes Master of Ceremonies, Geoffrey Grier (Director of Crisis Intervention, San Francisco Recovery Theater), and pairs the finest local-sourced, organic ingredients with a green vision for social justice, health, and environmental education. Proceeds will benefit creating a Green Teaching Kitchen, and Community Education and Training Center for San Francisco’s low-income youth, families, and communities. RSVP with tax deductible donation (requested $150/person) at https://www.g2t.org/donate/

The event is sponsored by TV20 (media sponsor), EcoTuesday, Green Building Exchange, Square One Organic Vodka, Beaune Imports, Grape Expectations, Organic Vintners, Mateveza, Fra’Mani, RoseBowl Florist, 4 Copas Organic Tequila, and Due Torri Coffee.

FGTT is a nonprofit organization, founded in 1996, and dedicated to bringing positive change in low-income communities through organic, green/sustainable living. For our low-income communities, green and sustainable is more than saving the environment; it is an essential lifeline to better health and quality of life. Eighty percent of health problems in low-income areas are related to nutrition, inactivity, and the environment.
