The Turquoise Table

Finding Community and Connection in Your Own Front Yard

De: Kristin Schell

Narrado por: Ginny Welsh

Loneliness is an epidemic right now, but it doesn't have to be that way. The Turquoise Table is Kristin Schell's invitation to you to connect with your neighbors and build friendships. Featured in Southern Living, Good Housekeeping, and the TODAY Show, Kristin introduces a new way to look at hospitality.

Desperate for a way to slow down and connect, Kristin put an ordinary picnic table in her front yard, painted it turquoise, and began inviting friends and neighbors to join her. Life changed in her community, and it can change in yours too. Alongside personal and heartwarming stories, Kristin gives you:

• Stress-free ideas for kick-starting your own Turquoise Table
• Simple recipes to take outside and share with others
• Stories from people using Turquoise Tables in their neighborhoods
• Encouragement to overcome barriers that keep you from connecting

This audiobook invites you to make a difference right where you live. It's an ideal audiobook to give to a friend or to keep for yourself. Community and friendship are waiting just outside your front door.

Stunning story!

Loved it. Very easy read and so inspiring! I especially loved all the recipes. Will have to get it in print so I have copies of them. I love the concept of the Turquoise Table and can't wait to get my own!

Simple idea that's a game changer

Easy listen that will fuel your fire to connect. Kristin's honesty helps create a relatable experience. Although I usually skip books with a religious bent, the subject matter applies across all faiths/non-faiths... if you are looking to create belonging, religion doesn't have to matter.

I'm getting ready to put my version Turquoise Table to work! Thanks Kristin!

Great Recommendation From a Friend

This is a great listen for those who facilitate community or would like to create community in their neighborhood or local area! I plan to gift this book to those in my life who dedicate their time to support community. Highly recommend!

An Amazing Read of Love, Faith, Community

I love that this is an idea that span not just your immediate neighborhood, but the community at large. I have been thinking for sometime about ways to get myself and others together on a regular basis to share our stories, joys or pains. This book gave me the courage to go forward with my idea of putting a bench in my Church yard, as I live in an association development, where people can sit and talk after worship or whenever the want.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Lovely and thought provoking

The book is lovely. I am contemplating getting the hard copy just for the recipes! The concept is adaptable. I like it.
