Our Story
Stone Soup is an age-old parable in which hungry itinerant strangers arrive in a town with nothing but an empty pot. The villagers refuse their appeal for a few scraps of food, so they melt snow to fill their pot with water, drop in a stone and bring it to the boil over a fire in the town square. The curious villagers ask the strangers what they’re making. “Stone Soup” they explain, “it’ s delicious as you’ll see, but would taste even better if you could spare a sprig of parsley!”. So, somebody contributes a sprig of parsley, then another fetches some vegetable scraps from home, somebody throws in a spare onion, someone else a bone. The pot continues to simmer as one villager after another throw in a scrap of this or that until they have a delicious, abundant and nourishing soup. Both the villagers and the strangers sit down to feast together.
This parable is Stone Soup Syndicate’s namesake and mission statement. We’ve dropped a stone into a pot to draw friends and strangers alike to contribute to and be nourished by our broth.
