this is going to be an exciting year! We've already planned out our talks for the year and they are going to be great. More details to come as the dates approach.
January 23/09 - Local Food Security and the global food system - who cares?
This is a note I saw posted at my local SAFEWAY store this week:
Due to extreme weather related issues and road closures; we are experiencing temporary gaps on supply with some commodities. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to be back in full supply as soon as the conditions improve.
This really brings home the point that our food supply is vulnerable to all kinds of circumstances. Is it really a good idea to import 80% of our food? Is it smart to be that dependant on things out of our control? What is really going on with our food?
If these are things you have thought about or want to know more about, come to our meeting on January 23rd, at the Village Lifestyles (10429 - 79 Avenue) at 7pm.
