"Hi Ann and Chris, I'd be interested in participating in such a group. Unfortunately I missed Holgar's talk so I'm not infomed but would love to be."

Hi there Karen

You kindly sent me a message when I signed up and I have been meaning to contact you - sorry about the delay.

How are you doing?  I am so thrilled with what is happening in my front garden - Julia and her crew are doing amazing things.

I would love to check out your raised beds one day!
Bye for now

Karen,

Thanks so much for helping to organize and facilitate last night's tomato workshop.  I hope to share the harvest this year, and you'll be first on my list!

Food

Local, organic, rural, and/or urban, food production is a mainstay of life, and doing it well leads to wellness. From farm to kitchen, discussions relating to food--and the community arising around it--belong here.

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
