History
Sustainable Sanctuary Coalition (aka SMEEFF): History and Structure
In early 2004, the Justice, Peace, and Environment Committee at Village
Presbyterian Church was approached and asked for their participation in the Shawnee Mission East Earth Fair ... The group that came together before the Earth Fair decided to continue meeting afterward using the name SMEEFF
(Shawnee Mission East Earth Fair Folk).
