# Lunch 2.0 at OpenSourcery

Have you sensed something missing in your life this month?

It’s Lunch 2.0.

Usually, this is about the time when I remind you to check out the monthly Lunch 2.0, generously hosted by one of the many great Portland (or [suburban](http://siliconflorist.com/2008/09/28/the-otbc-brings-lunch-20-to-the-burbs/)) hosts who open their doors for good conversation, networking and free food.

Not so this month, since I’ve decided to take a break. Fine maybe you’re too busy with Holiday stuff or watching Rick on [KGW Live @ 7](http://www.kgw.com/video/index.html?nvid=311830&shu=1) (w00t!) to notice, but in case you were jonesing for that sweet Lunch 2.0 nectar, here comes another announcement.

Thanks to [Amye ](http://twitter.com/msamye)[Scavarda](http://twitter.com/msamye) and the good folks at [OpenSourcery](http://www.opensourcery.com), you can plan on another Lunch 2.0 in March, the 11th to be exact.

**Hosts:** [OpenSourcery](http://www.opensourcery.com)

**Where:** [1636 NW Lovejoy St, Portland, OR 97209](http://maps.google.com/maps?q=1636+NW+Lovejoy+St,+Portland,+Multnomah,+Oregon+97209&ie=UTF8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&hl=en&cd=1&geocode=FXK7tgIdM-2v-A&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=23.875,57.630033&z=16&g=1636+NW+Lovejoy+St,+Portland,+Multnomah,+Oregon+97209&iwloc=addr)

**When:** March 11, 2009 from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM

Please [RSVP on Upcoming](http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1429655/) so the hosts can get an idea of how much grub to get. If you’re vegetarian or vegan, drop a comment on the event page for planning, unless you don’t want to eat.

OpenSourcery recently moved into new offices on NW Lovejoy, and they want to have an office-warming, Lunch 2.0. From their [About page](http://www.opensourcery.com/about):

> *In December of 2008 we moved our offices into the Lovejoy Building at SW Lovejoy and 17th Street. The Lovejoy Building is LEED Gold certified, with a host of design features that reduce OpenSourcery’s impact on the environment. Originally built in 1910, the edifice has since been renovated by Opsis Architecture so that every feature — including lighting, mechanical/electrical systems, heating, cooling, nightly air flushing, and the materials that went into construction — contributes to our commitment to sustainable practices. The ample bike parking and easy access to public transportation don’t hurt, either.*

I’m pretty sure it’s NW, not SW. Anyway, the new digs reflect OpenSourcery’s commitment to open and sustainable business. Check them out [here](http://www.opensourcery.com/about) if you want to do some research before March.
