ON APRIL 17TH THROUGH 23,2011, Five women will walk 90 miles from the Neversink Reservoir, NY to Salt Springs State Park, PA. We will carry a hand crafted "AMPHORA" of clean water taken from Buttermilk Falls in the Catskill Mountains to a place where water is endangered. WALK ABOUT WATER is a grassroots initiative to raise awareness of the sacredness of our water and our land. We will send this water around the world to other endangered lands, as a simple act of solidarity.

Chef Deanna D'Angelo-Karpe
Deanna is a chef who grew up in the Catskills and is the founder of Woodstock Hidden Kitchen whose mission is to prepare local food in an atmosphere of beauty and poetry. About a year ago, after having discovered the actual situation of our food and water, largely through the influence of Vandana Shiva, she felt that she could no longer go on with business as usual, and found it necessary instead to focus on creating a safe food supply through seed saving and local sustainable agriculture and educating others about the urgency of protecting our environment. Her mission in participating in the WalkAboutWater is to support other women, both those who have already been a victim of various crimes against our environment, and those who, like herself, wish to create and participate in grass root initiatives that empower in a nurturing way and raise awareness of the sacredness of water, food and the beauty and purity of our mountains, fields and rivers.
