[Garden] Reminder: Meeting Tonight, 7pm in WPIRG office (SLC 2139) Mon Feb 23, 2009

["Julia Klomfaß"]

oh damn it, i completely forgot about it i am sorry, now it doesnt fit into the plan anymore. well i wont be here in the summer anyway, but i have some contributions for the agenda:
1. food not bombs would still be very interested in some kind of cooperation (help out in eturn for some veggies, garlic etc) what do you think about that?
2. fnb also wants to organize a food awarenessday on campus. how exactly that should look like is not clear yet. the main idea is to point out problems of the currents food system and present some alternatives (We are looking at early to mid-March for Food Awareness Day 2009 to bring awareness to issues of hunger, poverty, industrial food waste, military spending and socially active groups and movements working for change). would you be interested in participating and introducing the ideas and principles of community gardening?


hope somebody reads this mail before the meeting.
cheers

julia
