Our honeymoon will be slightly delayed as we figure out what period of the year works best for our near completely opposite seasonal jobs.

Some potential destinations we have discussed include New Zealand, Indonesia, and the Dalmation Coast.

The Common Good Soup Kitchen is an all-volunteer group dedicated to promoting health, nutrition, and community among the residents of Mount Desert Island through meals, music, cooking classes, and more. We love their radical reinterpretation of what a soup kitchen can be so much that we have chosen to hold our Welcome Lobster Boil and Popover Brunch there!

350.org is a global grassroots climate movement. The number 350 is the level of CO2 in parts per million that climate scientists tell us we must achieve to maintain a livable planet. Climate change is huge and scary and we love that 350.org is working from the bottom up to hold our leaders accountable to the realities of science and the principles of justice.
