Hi! I'm Kat Peters.

I am working with a local church to take a vision trip to Costa Rica in 2023, to learn more about climate change and refugees, and to practice community service in a mutual way with our partners in Costa Rica.  

From 2022-March 2023 I was the In-Season Market Manager for the Coffee Creek Farmers Market on 178 E. Sidewalk Rd, Chesterton Indiana.  I loved working with local farmers and food makers to strengthen the local food system!

Junto con Casa Adobe y el Centro Praxis en Costa Rica, y Living Green Gardens en Portage, IN, estamos apoyando las huertas urbanas para la salud, el impacto climático y el bienestar de la comunidad.

Together with Yaggy Road Roasting Company in Valparaiso and the Praxis Center in Costa Rica, we are celebrating Costa Rican culture at the World Cultural Festival in Valparaiso on Sept. 19, 2021.

Ready for spring? Did you know you can start your seeds early with minimal effort and items you would probably throw away? Did you know you can grow greens almost all winter? I partner with the Calumet Artist Residency, Living Green Garden, and the Indiana University Northwest Theatre Department to introduce the concept of winter sowing and making a low tunnel to extend your growing season.

In September, 2021, I was able to do a walking tour of Gary, IN, to learn about the history of the city.  One presenter was Korry Shepard, historian and writer of Gary history.  We're going to have some conversations in 2022 to talk more about the importance of knowing our history.
