[All] Fw: Community Shared Agriculture Project

[Louisette Lanteigne]

Hi everyone. 

 At the recent economic forum hosted by the Non violence festival in Kitchener, I met a lady by the name of Cindy Moyer who is working on a Community Shared Agriculture project. It's a program of direct farm to table food distribution mixed with the creation of a local currency system.  She emailed me her project paper as seen in the attachments and wrote the following: 


Please feel free to forward the CSA Project paper to groups you are associated with to acquire their feedback on the question "does it align with our mission and goals"? If it does, then maybe all potential partners could get together (prefer all at once for efficiency) and talk about how we could tweak/massage the fundamentals of this project and make it a community-wide initiative.

If you have great contacts within the region, and are willing to make an email introduction, I would be happy to follow up with whomever and look to a meeting in maybe  January or February of all potential partners. If this idea resonates with you, then let's do it!

Feel free to give me a call at any time or let me know when you're available.

I just wanted to relay this to GREN members to give folks a chance to review her work. If you would like to give comment on the report or  to contact Cindy Moyer  she can be reached at 519-6770 at extension 235 and her email is cmoyer at smartdev.net <cmoyer at smartdev.net>

If you know of others who would be interested in reviewing and providing comment, please feel free to pass this on. 

Thanks

Lulu
